Right-Hand Pane Content Not Visible In IE 10, Windows CP 8

description

This is using the vs2010 Style of web site output, opening the top-level Index.html locally (as a file, not over http).
 
Normally, on older versions of IE on older versions of Windows, you will get the "unsafe content" bar, and as soon as you enable that, everything renders. But on IE 10, you never get that warning. Instead, you get the tree view of tops on the left, but just an empty blue background on the right, no matter what topic you click.

The same problem with IE10 reproduces with documentation over http not only from local files.

This becomes a very serious issue. The right side content is not visible in the IE 10 from Windows 8 Release Preview and there is a little chance this will change in the final Windows 8 release. Are you going to adress this somehow? Or otherwise please provide a workaround.

I haven't had a chance to install the latest release candidate yet. I will get to it within a few weeks.

The problem is two-fold: IE 10 sizes the content pane differently than prior versions. It now acts like FireFox and Chrome so the width adjustment needs to be done the same as for them in the ResizeContent() method in TOC.js. The second issue which requires a tool change is that IE10 doesn't like the MS Help XML data element nor the "ms-help" stylesheet link in each topic. I need to update the SandcastleHtmlExtract tool to strip them out of the Help 1 and website build content.
