  It is supported and has been supported for a long time. The browsers and versions of them that are supported are found here http://browsehappy.com

  If you are using an IE browser in compatibility mode please disable that mode. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  I just viewed your blog using both bIE11 and FF27 and saw no issues at all.

  3. If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/

  (a) Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

  If applicable see here for instructions on how to clear the cache for Chrome and Safari on the iPad:

  http://browsers.about.com/od/howtousemobilebrowser1/ss/How-To-Clear-Browsing-Data-In-Chrome-For-Ipad_6.htm

  (b) Make sure that you have both third-party cookies enabled and JavaScript enabled

  (c) Disable all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily.

  (d) Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  Add both *.wordpress.com and *.wp.com to your list of trusted sites under the Security tab. Make sure to uncheck the box for “Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone.” http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/#frequently-asked-questions

  4. You can use this link to see if your flash is up to date. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ If it’s not then go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ and download and install the latest version of flash.

  5. Try using another browser.

  Thanks a lot for your prompt answer!

  I did try all the tricks you said above, but IE11 still displayed the blog without proper formatting (looked like the CSS is not applied or partially applied)… Chrome worked fine :)

  The solution was to reset all IE11 settings – Internet Options – Advanced – Reset… and reboot. Since my IE settings were replicated between two computers it was broken on both :) Now it works like a charm!

  THANKS A LOT!!!

  Any plans on enabling IE11’s Reading View? I’ve walked through and added everything called out at
  http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/browser/readingview/
  but still can’t get Reading View enabled on my blog (http://netitude.bc3tech.net)

  thanks!
