Problems with nested cflayout and IE 7-9 inside cfwindow

[KDN0211]

I have a page that uses cflayout to display data. Links in the page fires a cfwindow that also contains a cflayout tag. This works perfectly in all other browsers, including IE 10, but not IE 9 and below. It does not produce an error, it simply does not display anything at all. The window appears with nothing in it. Server side is CF9.01.

Any ideas? Many thanks!

Test your cfwindow tag with simple output.  Keep adding stuff until it starts misbehaving.  Then you'll know what's causing the problem.

You were right. In one of the cflayouts, I used input type="datefield" and that brought the entire cfwindow to a blank page - all seven cflayouts. I have seen this before where my "favorite" browser IE cannot hack a datefield. I can live without it. Thanks! Now if MS would just get out of the browser business, the world would be a happier place.
