small icon promises to fix these problems (“Compatibility View” The small picture on the torn leaf) But many users are not aware of this and so many sales going to the store owner through the cracks.

For us, it was, configurable products that were displayed while, But as soon as an option should be selected, the screen (transparent overlays) was not as black or otherwise worked. In KM but it worked flawlessly.
Thus, the site should notify the IU, that he should sit at the outset in the KM. This means nothing else, as he does so as if he were the IE 8 and not 9 (really sad!).
To achieve this, sure this line right under the <title> Day of the respective templates are copied head.phtml:
<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=8″ />
The file is located in the folder app / design / frontend /[base or default]/[IhrTemplate]/template/page/html/
Then clear the cache may. Then the problems should be resolved but.
