RichFaces rendering issues in IE9

[rharibabu]

While using components like rich:tree, eich:editor in IE9 browser (without compatibility mode or using X-UA-Compatible META Tag), I'm facing the below issues with these components.

• In rich:tree, clicking on the node makes that entire node disappear from the tree, instead of just expanding that node.
• In rich:editor, the value of the editor is always coming as empty.

Both these issues are not observed while using IE8 or IE9 in compatibility mode. But, I'm not able to use X-UA-Compatibile META Tag as my page is a child page within a container and the container page cannot be changed.

I wanted to know, is there any update available for the RichFaces JARs to address this issue ?

What is your Mojarra version? There was a bug in versions earlier than 2.1.7 that could possibly be causing the behavior

you are seeing. Please see this post:

My mojarra version is still 1.2_12-b01-FCS and RF is 3.3.1, but I am not having issues with re-rendering (as mentioned in the other discussion). Re-rendering happens perfectly with most of the other RF components (in IE9), but the issue is with only very few of them, which I've mentioned above.

I can try updating my mojarra to anything above 2.1.7 and post here, if it works.

It wasn't apparent to me that you were using RF3 so of couse my reply is totally irrelevant. This looks like a good

post to read through and follow the links within it:

It doesn't look like there's a way to dynamically switch IE compatibility mode other than the meta tag, so it looks

like it all depends on the workings of your container/child page. With JSF 2 templates you would be able to

ui:define a "header" section that could be inserted between the h:head tags in the template, so you could have

child page specific content within the header including meta tags. Is there nothing similar you could do?

Good luck,

Brendan.
