Editor not shown in backend using IE11

Hi,

When using IE11 on a DW 8.2.3.13 solution, opening a paragraph does not show the editor.
If IE11 is set to Emulate IE10, the backend throws errors.
If the Compatibility View of the website is added into the Internet settings, the editor shows, but the front end is messed up.

My question is: How to get the editor back in action in the back end in IE11 without Compatibility Settings or Emulation Mode changed ?

Our customer is using DW as an intranet website, and their users and editors are going to use IE11 very soon. Currently they work with IE9 without these problems.

Hi Jeroen

IE 11 is newer than DW 8.2 versions of Dynamicweb, so it is not adapted to IE 11.

If you upgrade DW to a new version, the problem should be solved.

Hi Nicolai,

It seems solvable by adding a website level custom httpHeader:
"X-UA-Compatible" with the value "IE=EmulateIE9".
This way both backend as wel as front and have these headers. The editor shows again in the backend and the front end looks ok.
