Browser support Internet Explorer 10 - Compatibility Mode

I am developing an application using a proprietary front-end framework. The framework supported only Internet Explorer 7, 8 standards.

Now as a new requirement, we are testing our application in the Internet Explorer 10. I tried it in three personal computers having the same browser settings as described below.

Internet Explorer Version: 10.0.9200
Browser Mode: IE 10 compatibility View
Document Mode: IE 7 standards

I tested the same UI in three systems and the page got rendered in two systems but I received a script error in one system and I am not able to find the reason for that error.

Error details in the below line at character 4:

Object doesn't support this action 

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();

I am not able to find out the reason why the same application runs smooth in other browsers having the same settings.

If you're saying that the IE settings (and version) is exactly identical across all 3 machines then a lot of factors can be considered with this issue and it can span from connectivity, specifications, etc. - anything that can differentiate one PC to another which will be difficult to identify.

For the benefit of the doubt, we can give a try on the following:

  • Tweak your code to create the XMLHttpRequest object once the window loads

    window.onload = function() { var req = new XMLHttpRequest(); }
