TinyMCE and Internet Explorer 11

[paulbaker]

For reference, here's a visual guide to how to set IE11 to work with current TinyMCE module:

It helped a non-techy client overcome the issue.

a short term fix might be to mod the header template for the cms and force it to render as ie10 using the X-UA-Compatible meta tag? you could maybe duplicate the theme and apply this to "stay safe"

I'm not sure if this is still supported by ie11 but maybe worth a try?

I've got this problem as well but I'm having trouble finding my way round how the admin pages are generated. Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can find the header template and modify it?

sure - the back end uses smart templates

if you go to admin/themes/[THEME YOUR USINGS NAME]/templates/header.tpl

You can make the mod there

You may want to duplicate the theme just to keep the old one "safe"

Thanks. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work (the statement is appearing ok in the page but IE doesn't appear to pay any attention to it).

<start rant>
I built my first web site in 1996. In the intervening 18 years, different versions of browsers have come and gone. What has remained consistent throughout that time is that IE has been a pain to deal with. You'd think that 18 years would be enough time for them to fix it. But no, it would seem that that's just a bit too much to ask for.

lol - amen brother!

You may need to set this in the http header your server is returning (id do this via the htaccess file) aswell - hope that helps!

A horrible bodge that works is to add
