    <p>I developed some javascript enhanced pages that run fine on recent Firefox and Safari. I missed to check in Internet Explorer, and now I find the pages don't work on IE 6 and 7 (so far). The scripts are somehow not executed, the pages show as if javascript wasn't there, although some javascript is executed. I am using own libraries with dom manipulation, from YUI 2 I use YUI-Loader and the XML-Http-Request, and on one page I use "psupload", which depends on JQuery.</p> <p>I am installing Microsoft Script Editor from Office XP and will now debug. I will also write specific tests now.</p> <p>What are the typical failing points of IE? What direction I can keep my eyes open.</p> <p>I found this page, which shows some differences. visit: <a href="http://www.quirksmode.org/compatibility.html" rel="noreferrer">Quirksmode</a></p> <p>Can you from your experience name some typical things I should look for first?</p> <p>I will also ask more questions here for specific tasks later, but for now I am interested in your experience why IE usually fails on scripts that run fine in Firefox</p> <p><em>Edit:</em> Thank you for all those great answers!</p> <p>In the meantime I have adapted the whole code so that it also works with Internet Explorer. I integrated jQuery and built my own classes on top of it now. This was my basic mistake, that I did not build all my stuff on jQuery from the beginning. Now I have.</p> <p>Also JSLint helped me a lot.</p> <p>And many of the single issues from the different answers helped.</p>

    1. COThere are no problems with css or styling so far, as I knew that from earlier coding. Only JS problems - karlthorwald

    3. CO"This was my basic mistake, that I did not build all my stuff on jQuery from the beginning." -- it's not going to magically solve all of your cross-browser problems. Search stackoverflow for jQuery and IE, you'll find tons of issues. Best to learn cross-browser scripting yourself so when jQuery or one of its billions of sketchy plugins fails, you'll be able to implement a real working cross-browser solution, and know that it works, and why.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
