[$sce:iequirks] Strict Contextual Escaping does not support Internet Explorer version < 9 in quirks mode


Once I upgrade AngularJS from 1.0.7 to 1.2.0rc1 I get the following error:

[$sce:iequirks] Strict Contextual Escaping does not support Internet Explorer version < 9 in quirks mode
  • I have already added <!doctype html> but to no avail.
  • I also need to support IE7 (sob).

Solution

  • From the github issue related to this problem - $sce does not support IE7 in standards mode.

    The minimum bar for $sce is IE8 in standards mode. IE7 standards mode is not supported. If you must support IE7, you should disable $sce completely.

    To disable $sce:

    angular.module('ie7support', []).config(function($sceProvider) {
      // Completely disable SCE to support IE7.
      $sceProvider.enabled(false);
    });
