First, make sure Internet Explorer 8.0 or higher is installed on the computer on which your visualization project should be running. If you have an older version of Internet Explorer, go to the Microsoft website to upgrade it.
The Reliance system allows you to place a Web page in a visualization window by using an Internet Explorer component chosen from the Reliance Design development environment's Component Palette (the Additional tab). This component uses the so-called WebBrowser Control, which is a standard part of Windows operating systems. By default, Web pages placed in a visualization window render in IE7's strict mode, even though a newer version of Internet Explorer is installed on the computer. The reason is, according to Microsoft, to provide backward compatibility with older versions. To render pages placed in a visualization window through an Internet Explorer component in IE8's standards mode (or later), it is essential to edit the Windows Registry by simply adding the following value:
where R_XXX.exe represents the name of the respective runtime software's executable file and YYY is an Internet Explorer version identifier – see the following two tables:
| Runtime software | File name |
|---|---|
| Reliance 4 View | R_View.exe |
| Reliance 4 Control | R_Ctl.exe |
| Reliance 4 Control Server | R_CtlSrv.exe |
| IE version | Identifier | Note |
|---|---|---|
| IE 11 | 11001 (0x2AF9) | Webpages are displayed in IE11 edge mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive. |
| IE 11 | 11000 (0x2AF8) | Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE11 edge mode. |
| IE 10 | 10001 (0x2711) | Webpages are displayed in IE10 standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive. |
| IE 10 | 10000 (0x2710) | Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE10 standards mode. |
| IE 9 | 9999 (0x270F) | Webpages are displayed in IE9 standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive. |
| IE 9 | 9000 (0x2328) | Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE9 mode. |
| IE 8 | 8888 (0x22B8) | Webpages are displayed in IE8 standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive. |
| IE 8 | 8000 (0x1F40) | Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE8 mode. |
| IE 7 | 7000 (0x1B58) | Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE7 standards mode. |
