Webgrid 7.0 - Header Column Alignment issue!

Hi,

Glad that you have found the problem. Actually WebGrid in version 7, only can be rendered properly using XHTML and HTML4 doctype. This is why if you're using compatibility mode, some rendering won't be rendered like we expected. This problem might be happen because some configuration in your website force your website to show in compatibility view.

It's better if you used WebGrid 8, so you can put the RenderingMode to XHTML, HTML4, or HTML5 regarding your requirement. Our WebGrid 8 support all of three doctypes. If you have any further question, don't hesitate to ask us.

Regards,
Bernard

Thanks Bernard !!

I have found the solution for this issue. It is basically due to IE8 rendering mode.

when the application is hosted in IIS server, the page is rendered in IE8 Compatibility mode. I just forced the page to render in IE8 standard mode to fix the grid header issue.

I tried by adding a meta tag to render the page in IE* standard mode

 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8">

The HTML meta tag is ignored if you have the doctype set to xhtml transitional. The solution is to add an HTTP header in code.

This worked for us. Now our intranet site is forcing IE8 to render the app in standards mode.

Added to PageInit of the base page class

Response.AddHeader("X-UA-Compatible", "IE=EmulateIE8");

Thanks

Hi Clinton,

I tried to replicate your issue in our local end. But unfortunately, I couldn't replicate your issue in our local end. Could you let me know any configuration or style that you used inside WebGrid and tell me the step to replicate this issue in our local end? If possible, is there any simple sample that can replicate this issue in our local end? When you deploy your website, please ensure if ISNet.dll, ISNet.WebUI.dll, and ISNet.WebUI.Resources.dll has been added to your project's bin folder. Look forward to hear any feedback from you so I can help you further.

Regards,
Bernard

I have a Hierarchial Webgrid, which works fine with my visual studio development server. But the same project when hosted to an IIS in my intranet environment, the header colum is not aligned properly and it behaves abnormally.

I am using the same doctype for both and not changed any code.

My Specs:

Intersoft Webgrid V7.0.7200.533
Internet Explorer 8
IIS 5.1
.Net Framework 4

I Have attached the working screenshot and error one,.

Please advise on this whether i need to add some handlers or any specific deployment techniques ?
