IE9 / VObjectsRubberband / gifteditor

I'm having problems with Graphics Mill 5.5 for .NET and Internet Explorer 9 (IE9). I began working through some of the samples and demos contained in the documentation and I run into problems when using the VObjectsRubberband ajax control. When I run my project from within Visual Studio (2010) in debug mode I get errors on start up relating to G_vmlCanvasManager (please see below):

if (Sys.Browser.agent == Sys.Browser.InternetExplorer) {
   G_vmlCanvasManager.init(this._document);
}

If I run the project without debugging the project loads in the browser but a message is displayed (i.e. Error: 'G_vmlCanvasManager' is undefined) and the page fails to work correctly.

If I run the gifteditor sample as a website set up in IIS it also fails to work in IE9 unless I view it in compatibility mode. The weird thing is, is that I can view the same sample online at http://demo.aurigma.com/gifteditor/ without any such problems. I'd be grateful if someone could provide some insight as to what the problem may be (e.g. settings I may have missed?). I have to support IE9 and can't expect users to have to configure their browser in order form app to work.

Please could you describe the environment that you're using to host the gifteditor demo? E.g. target .net framework, managed pipeline mode (classic/integrated), identity (e..g Network Service/ApplicationPoolIdentity) etc. as well as any custom IIS and or web.config settings used? I added a custom hhtp response header (X-UA-Compatible) with value IE=EmulateIE7 to get the demo to work locally.

Thanks

You will need to add this code on the top of a page with the CanvasViewer:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8">
