lee1138 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I'm using internet explorer 11. (please don't tell me to use a different browser, that's not an answer to the problem) The quote function does not work. Copy and paste does not work. Is there a setting I am missing?

greekredemption Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I think there's a compatibility issue with IE 11 and the software this forum uses (this knowledge is a few months old, so may now be wrong). As I recall, there's no real workaround from the user's end except to work in bbcode... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee1138 Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 Ok, thanks for answering. Hopefully the forum software will be updated soon so that this isn't such a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsayers Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Do you have any script blocking options for IE11? If you're willing to sacrifice source name in the quote header, blocking scripts for this site will give you a sort of plain code quote that can be copy and pasted. [EDIT] I tried to make a demonstration, but it preserved the author header. So perhaps I'm referring to a drawback that has since been corrected. Anyways, if you block scripts, you'll get a plain code quote that you can copy and paste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairie Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 As I recall, there's no real workaround from the user's end except to work in bbcode...Which in the long run is preferable to all the tedium of the styled editor. It's a breeze to quote multiple people and trim quotes in unstyled (BBCode) mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Beal Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 All the cool kids are using Chrome these days. And if nothing else, IE development cycles have rapidly sped up so an auto update to IE12 should happen soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesP Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I keep this forum software pretty up-to-date with patches and new versions, so if they come out with a fix for your problem, it'll definitely be in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee1138 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 I thought about using chrome.. But I have everything set the way I like it in IE... <sigh> as far as script blocking goes, I can put the website into the untrusted zone and that will prevent it from displaying anything more than basic html.

JamesP Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Alternatively, if anyone can identify the problem and submit me a patch, I will apply it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsayers Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I thought about using chrome.. But I have everything set the way I like it in IE... <sigh> I can relate to this a great deal. How do you know that you wouldn't be able to recreate the experience in Chrome? When I made the switch to Chrome, most of the differences I noticed (coming from Firefox), I either grew to enjoy or was able to counteract by way of extensions.
