Excanvas does not work in IE8 at all [duplicate]

This question already has answers here: Possible to get Excanvas to work in IE 8? (7 answers) Closed 9 years ago.

I simply cannot get excanvas to work at all. I have tried everything I can think of. I am even uploading the examples that come with excanvas to my website and testing them and they do not even work. I don't know if it has something to do with my server or what, but I haven't seen a working excanvas image ye开发者_运维知识库t.

for instance... I this example comes with the excanvas package and it does not work for me... does anyone know what this could possibly be? thanks

Try this: Tools > Options > Security > Custom level... > **Binary and script behaviors** (under <i>ActiveX controls and plug-ins</i>-section)

Change it to either Enable or Administrator approved.

I find the answer! The problem may be in security settings of browser. You must add http://explorercanvas.googlecode.com to Internet options -> Security -> Trusted Sites!

Your problem was almost certainly because of the "compatibility mode" that was introduced in IE8... Add this to your page to force IE to use the IE7 compatibility mode:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
