Different alignments when hosted on IIS and development in ASP.Net server

Question

User-953162784 posted

Hi,

I am working on a website for our company. When we are developing web pages in asp.net and aligning controls, they are behaving differently when developing and after hosting.

What is the difference between development website and hosted website? Please suggest a solution

Thanks in advance,

Surya

If you're using stylesheets make sure they're making it to your deployed server.

Check whether you iss configured with static content enabled or not. Your stylesheets and images are treaded as static contents as per IIS. If not enabled goto Windows features and enable static contents.

There's a chance that this is what's causing the difference between running in VS and under IIS.

This issue is fixed by adding name "X-UA-Compatible" and value as "IE=8,9,10" in web.config as follows:

<configuration><system.webServer>
     <httpProtocol>
      <customHeaders>
        <clear />
        <add name="X-UA-Compatible" value="IE=8,9,10" />
      </customHeaders>
    </httpProtocol>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>
