I appear to have some issues using the quote button, and inserting links, images etc. into posts when I'm using Internet Explorer. Does anyone else have any issues?

 

Before anyone says it, I know I could use Chrome instead... IE seems to be quicker on my computer.

I had the same problem and had to switch to Chrome to keep posting. I couldn't find any solution to the problem.

What version of IE?  If a newer one you may need to set the site to compatibility mode.

That said you much safer browser with any browser but IE.

Most new versions of IE require compatibility mode to view forums like this correctly.. IDK why but enable compatibility for this site and it should resolve the issues.

Enabling compatability doesn't seem to work.

I think it's probably better not to use IE at the moment anyway!

 

EDIT: After a quick Google, It seems the issue may be with parts of IP Board in general, and a lack of support for the latest version of IE.

It appears in IE 11 compatibly mode use IE7.  My guess both are not compatible with this site. 

 

I would suggest using either chrome or firefox.  The later just got a new release add looks more like chrome.
