Description
Feature Request
Web Chat layout don't works in quirk mode. Adaptive Cards also didn't work well in quirk mode. The page hosting Web Chat must have <!DOCTYPE html> on.
We could give warnings to developers when they are hosting Web Chat in quirk mode.
To detect:
document.compatMode === 'CSS1Compat'; // this is good
document.compatMode === 'BackCompat'; // this is bad
Bugs related to quirk mode
Safari
In macOS Catalina (10.15.1) and Safari 13.0.3 (15608.3.10.1.4). When the page is rendered in quirks mode, the transcript will be hidden by the send box.
