OOF differences with Firefox and I.E8
« on: 13 January 2010, 20:30:46 »

Can anyone give me any pointers please as to why things work on Firefox but not IE8 and vice versa when looking at OOF?

For example I can only post on IE8. There aren't any buttons visible on Firefox when I log in. Avatars appear on Firefox but not IE. and now I am looking at
http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1209123017 and neither has a diagram.

I keep both uptodate . I used to accept it was a prob due to using dial up but now have 1.5meg so it isn't speed. maybe IE needs active X or adobe flash.

FF might require some addons to be fully functional. Java, flash etc.

I currently use IE8, without issue (on OOF).

OOF doesn't use any special technologies/plugins beyond javascript. Occasionally people post utube style vids, which needs flash.

ff and ie8 working fine for oof.. :-/

imho, if you are having problems with oof (not heavily dependant on add-ons or activex) you will also have with many other sites..

try fixing each.. because their problems wont be common..
