Summary :
SAP Note addresses issues with BEx Web Application Designer (WAD) in compatibility with Internet Explorer 9 (IE9). Users experience difficulties in modifying or creating templates due to drag-and-drop functionality and context menu limitations on web items and HTML content in layout mode. These limitations result from properties of Microsoft.mshtml.dll, which revert to read-only mode in IE9, impeding any changes in layout mode. Solutions include uninstalling IE9 and reverting to Internet Explorer 8 or earlier, or switching to XHTML tab for manual edits, ensuring careful operation to maintain integrity when modifying or creating templates in XHTML mode.
