My company's website only works on IE in compatibility view - is there a way to set this in Firefox?

enabling compat. view in IE makes the site work, is there a similar thing in Firefox?

Hi goo7, airlines' sites for their employees have come up here before as technology laggards. I think it's just a fact of life that until Microsoft finally stops supporting those sites, they are not going to be be a priority for updating to work in other browsers. (And then I expect to see a new "website update" fee on my next ticket.)

Unfortunately it seems not

The best that I can recommend is using a tool such as browserstack or to install all the version of Firefox you are intrested in testing

Best of luck

Thanks, maybe someday they will have a fix, I guess I will use IE until then.

There's nothing to "fix" in Firefox!

Compatibility view in IE is to "fix" older websites that were created back in the days when Microsoft didn't use standards compliant code. That changed back in 2007 when IE 7 was brought into compliance with web standards.

What needs to be fixed is your company's old website, so that it follows current web standards and doesn't rely upon old non-standard code that Microsoft used in the past.

Thanks xxxxxx. Tell that to an airline that is in the top 3 (one of AA, DAL and UAL). If you can get a multibillion $$ company to do that, maybe your Harry Potter wand really does work.
