I use a corporate website that needed compatability view settings in internet explorer. Using Firefox I cannot find such a setting.

I have a corporate website that is only partially visible unless it was run in compatibility mode on internet explorer. I switched to firefox due to annoying pop ups on IE. But I cannot read this website. How do I fix this, or do I have to go back to IE? And don't tell me to delete cookies and browser history. That is automatic every time I close the program.

Firefox doesn't have a compatibility setting as it always had been W3C compliant. IE needs this because current versions are (more) W3C compliant and workarounds are needed to support web page that were coded for older IE versions (e.g. document.all instead of document.getElementById). If the site only works with older IE versions then it is likely that the code isn't compatible with modern browsers and you may be out of luck. You can check the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to see if there are specific JavaScript errors.
