Website displays incorrectly in Internet Explorer 8 or 9
Websites that were designed for earlier versions of Internet Explorer might not display correctly in the
current version. However, you can often improve how a website will look in Internet Explorer by using
the new ‘Compatibility View’ feature. When you turn on Compatibility View, the webpage displayed
(and any other webpages within the website’s domain) will display as if you were using an earlier ver-
sion of Internet Explorer.
1. In IE8, click the
Stop
button on the right side of the Address bar.
2. If the page has stopped loading, click the
Refresh
button to try again.
3. Click the
Tools
button, and then click
Compatibility View
.
If Internet Explorer recognizes a webpage that is not compatible, the
Compatibility View
button displays
on the Address bar. To turn Compatibility View on, click the
Compatibility View
button. From now on,
whenever you visit this website, it will be displayed in Compatibility View. However, if the website re-
ceives updates to display correctly in the current version of Internet Explorer, Compatibility View will
automatically turn off. Note that not all website display problems are caused by browser incompatibility.
Interrupted Internet connections, heavy traffic, or website bugs can also affect how a webpage is dis-
played. To go back to browsing with Internet Explorer 8 on that site, click the
Compatibility View
button
again.
4. Check your ION firmware version and upgrade to the latest if outdated. See the “Upgrade” section.
5. Check the Microsoft Support Online websit

more
information.
