Issue #4530 has been updated by Daniel Sauble. File dashboard_under_IE8.png added
I brought up Dashboard under IE8 this morning, and the graphs appear to display in a usable fashion (see attached). The only artifacts I can see is that the background of the graph is black (not white), and the x-axis titles are shifted up slightly, but nothing serious. Looking at the markup, SVG isn't even used in this particular graph (open question: is it used elsewhere?). The charting library used by Dashboard is Grafico, which is based on Raphaël, which, apparently, supports IE6+ by falling back to VML when SVG support isn't available. So, in theory, there shouldn't be a reason for graphs not being displayed under IE8. Next week I'll be investigating this further: (1) by triggering a case where SVG/VML graphs are compiled, then (2) evaluating the output to ensure IE is being fed VML and rendering it correctly. ---------------------------------------- Bug #4530: Dashboard doesn't display usefully under Internet Explorer 8. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4530 Author: Brett Maton Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Daniel Sauble Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected URL: Affected Dashboard version: Puppet-Dashboard doesn't display graphs on IE8 and the layout has shifted (probably due to missing graphs). Not a huge problem, just suitably unimpressed managers ;) Screen shot attached (host names removed, not missing from actual page) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
