Cufon doesn't work under IE9 but it works fine in compatibility mode only.

Any clue how it could be fixed?

Thank you!

Was it helpful?

Solution

Fix:

<!--[if gte IE 9]> <script type="text/javascript"> Cufon.set('engine', 'canvas');   </script> <![endif]-->

or add

<meta content="IE=8" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" />
