Why don’t some websites and pages work correctly in IE9?

Why don't some website features work in Internet Explorer 9?

“Some website features might not work correctly if you're using the Beta version of Windows Internet Explorer 9 or old versions of add-ons. For example, links to videos and games might not work or a webpage might not open at all.

If a website isn't working correctly, try one or both of the following:

  • If you're using Internet Explorer 9 Beta, download the most recent version of the browser from the Internet Explorer 9 download page. For more information about the version of Internet Explorer that you're using, see Find out which version of Internet Explorer you're using.

  • Download the most recent versions of your installed add-ons. For example, if you're trying to watch a video or play an online game, you might need to update Microsoft Silverlight, Adobe Flash, or Java. You might need to go to an add-on manufacturer's website to download an update. For more information about add-ons, see How to manage add-ons in Internet Explorer 9.

Why do some webpages look incorrect in Internet Explorer 9?

“Some websites might not display correctly in Windows Internet Explorer 9. For example, portions of a webpage might be missing, information in a table might be in the wrong locations, or colors and text might be incorrect. Some webpages might not display at all.”

If so you can try looking at

  1. Turning on compatibility mode
  2. Turn off Tracking Protection for a single website
  3. Turn off Hardware Acceleration

    Wake up Microsoft I'm surfing the net not writing a computer program - Looks like I'll stick with ie8 and hope ie10 is better...
