Hi,

We use Infragistics 9.1 in our project.. But when we use IE 9, infragistics is not working. Do we have any hotfix for the same ?

    thesubbu,

    NetAdvantage for ASP.NET 2010 Volume 2 with the latest service release is the earliest volume of NetAdvantage that supports IE9.  You can see this on the supported environments page.

    If you need a volume that supports IE 9 and still has the classic controls that were retired like the UltraWebGrid, the latest volume that you can upgrade to is NetAdvantage for ASP.NET 2011 Volume 1 which can be downloaded from the archived downloads page.

    Let me know if you have any questions with this matter.

    You maybe out of luck. IE9 support needs a later version of Infragistics but I suspect you won't find it a simple upgrade as support for some legacy controls was removed inbetween 9.1 and now. So it's not a trivial upgrade. One of the version (2010.?) had most of the legacy controls intact but also had support for IE9. That would be your simplest choice but upgrading the latest version (which will involve code re-write) has the merits of a much cleaner set of controls which are inherently more browser compatible and less buggy (ish).

    Experience has shown me that the web is much more fragile than good old Windows applications in terms of backwards compatability and that if you use 3rd party controls  (which saves you time),  you should always factor time to keep the web app up to date. Expect to have to do this every couple of years. It might get easier as web standards stabilise but I'd not bet on it.

    Cheers, Rob.
