The MVC 4.0 application works fine with IE 8, IE 9 and Chrome when the compilation debug ="true".
When set to compilation debug="false" and after adding BundleTable.EnableOptimizations = true in the BundleConfig.cs for the release, a date error appears on IE 8.
The field field name Date must be a date
On IE 9 and in Chrome the date fields are working fine.
So I suspected bundling issues, but when I checked the script bundle using developer tool - script tab, I can see the below mentioned part of the script at the end, which I understand that the bundle is delivered properly.
$('.datefield').datepicker({ dateFormat: "yy-mm-dd" });
Further the scripts works fine on IE 9.0 and Chrome, so I believe the bundling is working fine.
When in debug = true mode, the script works in IE 8.0 without any issues. If it is a jQuery script compatibility issue, then here also we should get error, right?
I verified that the script files dumped into browser in the debug mode is there in the bundleConfig Add().
Please help me to identify a fix for the IE 8.0.
Adding the script files I see in debug = true mode.
