Symptoms

When Speedscreen Browser Acceleration is enabled, Internet Explorer is unable 
to display menus, adjacent to JPEG or GIF images, generated by JavaScript.

Cause

SpeedScreen Browser Acceleration intercepts MIME types rendered on the server 
by Internet Explorer and provides additional compression over ICA. In menus 
generated by JavaScript, adjacent to JPEG or GIF images, this rendering fails 
because of conflicts within Internet Explorer and SpeedScreen Browser 
Acceleration.

Resolution

If the image adjacent to the menu that is displaying incorrectly is a GIF, 
follow these steps:

1. Open the Internet Explorer session where the problem is observed.

2. Go to Tools > Internet Options.

3. Choose the Advanced tab and scroll down to the Multimedia node.


4. Enable the Play animations in web pages checkbox.


5. Refresh the page to assert the workaround.

Note: If you have a policy to restrict Internet Explorer, most likely the 
Advanced tab will not exist and thus the policy needs to be revised to include 
that option.

If the image adjacent to the menu that is displaying incorrectly is a JPEG, 
turn off SpeedScreen Browser Acceleration.
