IE8 standards mode, rich:modalPanel cannot be closed
----------------------------------------------------
Key: RF-6437
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-6437
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.3.0, 3.2.2
Environment: Windows XP, Internet Explorer 8 RC1 (tested using VirtualPC VM
provided by Microsoft)
Reporter: Andrew May
A JavaScript error is thrown when trying to close a modal panel when using IE8RC1 in
standards mode.
With 3.3.0GA (as currently in use by the live demo), the error is at ui.pack.js.jsf at
line 903 character 30:
if(G.style.removeExpression){G.style.removeExpression("width");
In IE8 standards mode support for expressions has been removed:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/10/16/ending-expressions.aspx. The check for
G.style.removeExpression returns true, but the call to the method throws a "Not
Implemented" error.
This may be a bug in IE8, but it's unlikely to be fixed before it is released, and
I've been unable to submit a bug at the
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/Feedback
site. Therefore it may be necessary to work around it.
