IE9/10 issue with ExtendedFileManager/ImageManager: window.opener null

Hi guys,

When attempting to open the popup for EFM or ImageManager (or indeed any popup) in IE9 or 10, I get a JS error about not being able to reference the object 'Xinha' as it's null or undefined.

It points me to line 14 of popups/popup.js, which sets the Xinha variable to window.opener.Xinha - this seems to be undefined in IE9 and 10, despite there being Xinhas active in the parent window.

Any idea how to fix this?

You need to add the following to your pages that load the editor:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8,chrome=1">

It is broken in IE > 8 so we force the browser to go into version 8 compatibility mode
