Quoting with Internet Explorer


Recommended Posts

Whenever I try quoting using IE, nothing happens, I'm directed to the box but there is no quote. However, this doesn't happen when I use Firefox - I actually see the quote in the message box.

What am I doing wrong in IE?

You're doing nothing wrong. The 3rd-party software this forum uses doesn't work well anymore with IE, I had the same issues. Use Firefox if you want a good open-source browser. Use Google Chrome if you want all of your personal information and browsing habits data-mined and sold to the highest bidder by a publicly traded company, like any evil Google product.

You're not using it to download Google Chrome.

Do that and all your problems will go away.

haha

BC Chick, you should consider switching to a modern browser like Chrome. Internet Explorer has been outdated for a number of years now and has a lot of compatibility issues.

Good one, eyeball. :))

CC, I'm inclined to agree with MG, I prefer Firefox to Chrome.

I just bought a new computer though and I was using IE since the computer is preloaded with it. I wondered if I'm doing something wrong on the site, but good to know it's just software incompatibility.

Thanks guys.

How evil is it really? I understand they've been telling our governments to go screw themselves, for the moment at least, surely that counts for something. Whoever is buying my data must be getting squat for their money. I rarely see any ads. I report the very odd one I receive see as spam and never respond to them. I only very rarely ever buy anything online.

I actually live a very spam free existence - I also get virtually nothing in my Canada Post box.

A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

Has anyone tried Spartan or opera?

I'm also having to click 'next' numerous times to get to the end of a thread on my iPhone. I think someone mentioned that earlier
