XHTML doctype and IE7

hi there,

when using XHTML Transitional doctype instead of HTML 4.01 Transitional, column headings do not line up properly in IE7, using below code:






Test












Changing the doctype above to HTML 4.01 Transitional makes the columns and the header line up properly. The above code works fine in IE8, FF3, and Chrome; just not IE7 (or IE8 in “compatibility view”) The grid.xml is the same one used in the autowidth example for dhtmlxgrid… am using dhtmlxSuite 2.1.

Any suggestions?

We cannot reproduce this issue locally. Could you please send us sample or screenshot where this issue occurs.

please see attached file.  grid_good.htm lines up properly and uses HTML 4.01 Transitional doctype.  grid_bad.htm is the same as grid_good, except it uses XHTML 1 Transitional and does not line up properly.  Problem only occurs in IE7 / IE8 in Compatibility View / FF using IEtab.

Issue was confirmed. Fixed files will be send you by email
