jqplot with IE8 not working
internet-explorer-8, javascript, jqplot, jquery
Solution
Did you include the `excanvas`?
From their site:
Note, excanvas is required only for IE versions below 9. IE 9 includes native support for the canvas element and does not require excanvas
Note, if you are using IE10+ and are emulation IE8, conditional comments does not work.
So instead of
<!--[if lt IE 9]><script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="excanvas.js"></script><![endif]-->
try out
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="excanvas.js"></script>
If it works then, it should work in the real IE8. You can keep the conditional comment or use feature dectetion to include the `excanvas.js`.
Problem
i am getting a js-error when i try to init graphs with jqplot under IE8. The error is at: ``` return window.G_vmlCanvasManager.initElement(P) ``` in the jquery.jqplot.min.js file. The error is about: "the property initElement is undefined or null" How can i fix that? Moreover the same error appears at the official site of jqplot. I am using the IE11 with IE8 Emulator Mode. IE>8 => no problems.
