maria1 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Hi folks - on this website the author mentions a compatibilty switch. I know I read about this in the "old forum" (I just found the layout and content has all changed) but cannot find it there anymore. Can you help me obtain this "switch"? Thank You Maria http://bit.ly/16spAQ0 2- Install the “Compatibility View” plugin Now that we have set the standard mode as default, what about when we reach a website that doesn’t work in the standard mode? do we have to restart each time to switch to the compatible mode? No, this is another IE8 feature that is IE kept it only for itself, quick switching between the two rendering modes just by a click of a button, it’s nearly impossible to have the same feature in a browser like M2, but that didn’t stop the plugins wizard/forum admin “Abc@home” from making a plugin that quickly switches between the two modes, which can be downloaded from here. How is this possible? simple; the plugin uses Maxthon’s filtering features to change the page source code on the fly to add a tag in it that tells IE to switch to the compatible mode, it’s a tag Microsoft made available for the lazy websites designers who don’t want to stick to standards, and that’s how this plugin works exactly when you click it to switch to the compatible mode.

maria1 Posted June 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Hi Rick - that would be M2 see quoted article. Theauthor refers and points to a compatibility switch which I read topics about when M2 came about but cannot find anymore now in the new forum habitat. Would you know where to find this thread? Topic? Maria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joemax Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 It's here maria1, nice to see you back! Edit: Oh, this is just the download, if you have any questions we'll try to help. I think all you have to do is double click the button on the status bar to switch mode. The old forum is being archived, we've been promised we will be able to access it in the future as read only, but no timetable. About your email, you can add a second backup email to recieve notifications using the settings button at the top of the page(if there are any) I would suggest using PMs instead though. http://addonsmx.maxthon.cn/zh_CN/post/2567 or here (English) http://addonsmx.maxthon.cn/en/post/2567 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
