I was testing some scripts in IE10, seems that the browser has problems in setting attribute cols
.
Example:
parent.middle.document.getElementById("middle_frames").cols = "0,*"
This works perfect for SAF/Chrome/FF/IE7/IE8/IE9, but in IE10 it doesn't work.
Anyone with some help?
I can't show my problem in my project, but I made a dummy script to show you the problem. Make 3 files (these below) and run them in IE10 and click the button "change cols". Works perfect for every browser except IE10. In my example you see I used a doctype, tried also without a doctype, same problem.

Here's what worked for me...
The redraw method that Emanuele describes above is the right solution. However, the referenced plugin is no longer available at the jQuery plugin site.
Here's what worked for me to force IE10 to set a frame column attribute...
1) Create a small jQuery plugin that instantly hides and shows an element, effectively redrawing it.
2) Reference it in your JavaScript as follows:
I resolved this ie 10 bug after a bit research. I found that only 'cols' attribute is not working for iframes but the 'rows'attribute is working, so i added a row and it worked for me.
