Workbox tasks and notifications do not load in IE8

XMLWordPrintable

      Confluence workbox (tasks and notifications) does not load in IE8. See reports on Atlassian Answers:
      https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/84467/confluence-4-3-tasks-notifications-do-not-load

      And also on the Confluence 4.3.1 release notes:
      https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence+4.3.1+Release+Notes?focusedCommentId=302809497#comment-302809497

      Workaround

      Disable Compatibility Mode on IE8. But if that is not possible, then edit both templates\mywork.vm as well as templates\login.vm in the mywork-confluence-host-plugin-x.x.x.jar (which is stored in the confluence\WEB-INF\classes\com\atlassian\confluence\setup\bundled-plugins.zip).

      Add this:

      <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EDGE,chrome=IE7">

      in between the <head> </head> tags. It should look like this:
      mywork.vm

      <head>
    <title>${i18n.getText("com.atlassian.mywork.title")}</title>

    <!-- Need to add media query support for IE8-->
	<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EDGE,chrome=IE7">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no">
    <meta name="context-path" content="${req.contextPath}">

      login.vm:

      <head>
    <title>${i18n.getText("com.atlassian.mywork.login.title")}</title>
	<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EDGE,chrome=IE7">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

      Refer to Edit Confluence JAR files for more info on how to edit the JAR files. Best method is to use WinRAR, edit the files from within WinRAR, and update the archive after that
