Compatibility view in IE + XPages

Hello

Recently I worked on some XPages application that used OneUI and ExtensionLib from OpenNTF.

During testing we discovered that almost all browsers displayed application UI in a similar way and only IE9.0 users experienced some strange issue sometimes.

You may see how this issue looked like on the screen below - combobox is partly cut on the right

The funny thing was that not all users of IE9.0 experienced this issue but only part of users.

When we started to dig up into this problem we discovered that this issue had only users with enabled "Compatibility view" in their IE9.0.

After we disabled compatibility view this issue disappeared.

Here is programmatic workaround for this issue: http://www.bizzybee.be/2014/03/05/internet-explorer-pain-how-to-bypass-forced-compatibility-mode-on-your-intranet/
