IE 10

[DrComputer]

I'm not sure how many other people are using Windows 8 with IE 10 and this site, but as an IT guy I always have to use the latest toys. I have noticed that in IE 10 native mode when trying to post or edit a message you cannot insert a return. If you put IE 10 in compatibility mode then you can insert a return when in the editor but you lose all of the cool Windows 8 features like spell checking as you type. Doug, is there an update for the forum software that makes it play nice with IE 10 yet?

I also have been using IE10, for a while now. And I browse this site on there. I have the exact same problem (in Metro (or whatever it is called now) mode as well as windowed mode). I just copy a carriage return and paste it when I post with IE10. It is a big hassle though.

hmmm... I'll look into it, but I wouldn't hold your breath. They've been so preoccupied trying to finish the next version of the software that they've long delayed even minor bug fixes in the current version.

Ok, so the suggestion I got was to use the non-WYSIWYG editor. You can toggle between editor modes by clicking the top left button in the editor toolbar.

Cool I'll test it when I get home from work. I have to rock XP at work, so IE8 for me. And by IE8 I mean Chrome, Opera, Firefox or anything that keep me from using IE8.

It was good for its time, but no more.

I cant change lines with the WYSIWYG editor.

But
the
regular
editor
I
can.

[doug]

So it worked?

[ElSupreme]

Yes. It worked just fine.

I might change my preferences to do the non-WYSISYG as default. It doesn't seem that much different.

Makes typing much easier, and I don't have to worry about copying a carriage return.

Typing in IE 10 now.

[DrComputer]

Cool. I will do that too.

Just finished an update that supposedly "fixed" this. Please try the WYSIWYG editor in IE10 and report back.
