After working at three different companies where only certain versions of IE would properly display the companies CRM or ticket tracker I think I have the fix for most rendering issues associated with Microsofts stubborness to follow the Box Model and adhere to the W3C markup standards.

Here are my suggestions for "fixing" IE 8 in order to provide a workaround for the broken Box Model found in Internet Explorer.

 

 

The following examples are can be found in IE 8 utilizing the button in the top, far right corner of the screen called Internet Options:

 

A.- Add to site to Trusted Sites.

1.               https://*.entersitenamehere.com

2.               http://*.entersitenamehere.com (uncheck the box to require https)

 

Click the Security tab, then Sites under each zone:

 

 

 Trusted sites (cont'd):

B.- Click the compatibility mode button on the right side of the URL bar.

 

 

C.- Stop the http popup, because if user choose "Yes" then the page will render incorrectly.

1.     Going  to Tools->Internet Options->Security

2.     Select the 'Security' tab

3.     Click Trusted Sites

4.     Click the 'Custom Level' button

5.     In the 'Miscellaneous' section change "Display mixed content" to Enable

a.     Then repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other two zones, "Internet and Local  Intranet."

 

  

 

 

 

 

My opinion is that IE 8 will work fine with most CRMs and ticket tracker applications. If these directions do not work, and you have followed them exactly, then try them one more time after doing the following:

 

1.     Click Tools.

2.     Click Internet Options.

3.     Click the Advanced Tab.

4.     Click the button Reset at the bottom right.
