Problems displaying images correctly on IE8 with nightly 3.1d build

[hin3x]

Hello,

We have notice a problem in our application where images are no longer displayed correctly in IE8 - the whole layout looks terribly wrong.

We also notice this on the LGPL showcase of 10/09, however when we install the LGPL showcase of 10/11 the problem is gone.

Since we are using the pro version we assumed that the problem would also been resolved when installing the pro build of 10/11 but this doesn't seem to be the case.

Could it be that the fixed aren't available on the Pro or is there someting else going wrong?

(I tried installing the showcase of the pro version to see what it gives but it failed to start due to some missing libraries)

This is on: SNAPSHOT_v8.3d_2012-10-11/Pro Deployment (built 2012-10-11)

thanks

It's the same code, so the most likely explanation is that the installation was unsuccessful, perhaps because of not running a GWT compile or not clearing the browser cache and restarting the browser. The instructions in the FAQ will allow you to verify what version you're actually running.

Hello,

What I did:
1) download the build (9 oct)
2) build the samples from scratch
3) install on our server
4) open IE8, reset cache with dev tools, restart IE8
=> everything image related on the opening page of the sample app looks weird (red crosses, absent, etc.)

Note that this version also contains the syntax issue in the load_skin.js which causes the dev console to display inpropertly.

1) download the build (11 oct)
2) build the samples from scratch
3) install on our server
4) open IE8, reset cache with dev tools, restart IE8
=> showcase displays ok
=> dev console displays ok

When I re-install the 1st build with the same procedure I get the same issue -- this leads me to believe that this is not an installation related issue.

This only happens in IE8, not on IE9 or Chrome or FF.

Please advise.

thanks

This isn't making much sense now - first you said the Oct 11 Pro build wasn't working. Now you've said it's fine. So no issue?

The showcase built with the LGPL build is working on the 11th, the PRO build of that same date isn't. Sorry for the confusion.

Since the effect which we are having after installing the build is exactly the same as witnessed on the older build we assume that the cause might be the same...


Update: Turned out to be the same issue -- we have a load_skin.js for our custom skin which is merged with the standard enterprise one when we update -- the issue was simply not fixed there by us.
