Re: [Xsltforms-support] How to support IE

[Mark S. <m_s...@ma...>]

Hi, 

Thanks, Alain, Leigh and Bill for help and suggestions, it is very much appreciated.

Alain suggested that I put a nocss instruction in options, which did the trick. So now the form loads in IE9, though it is remarkably slower than in Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

Best wishes

Mark
