Unable to use any 'buttons'
« on: January 14, 2017, 02:54:55 PM »
Ever since I switched to a Windows 10 PC with IE 11 I have been unable to use any of the buttons: emojis, bold, hyperlink, etc... Also, I am unable to widen the dialog box at all. I also checked on Chrome and have the same problem. Trust me, I get not liking Windows 10 (I hate it, and am saving up for a MacBook pro) but I would still like to be able to use the various tools at times...

Still nothing for me. I cannot use any of the buttons, it is getting really tedious for me to use these forums.

I normally use Firefox but I tested it in IE 11, on Windows 10, and all the buttons work for me. So there's something about your system. Are you blocking any kind of content? Are you using something other than an ordinary mouse? Do you have any assistive settings turned on?

I am using a windows laptop, running Edge. I do have some pop-up blockers, but they don't interfere with any other message board sites (like RPG.NET) only this one. I have Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Secure Connection, but again, they don't interfere with other sites like this. (And I have been having the problem since before I have been using the Secure Connection.) Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. I just checked it out using Chrome and it seems like the buttons work, so I will be using that from now on. I guess, whatever I have only affects the Edge browser.

hmm ...

maybe edge has problems that the forum signals :

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

which may be related to these issues:

looking at the age of the forum/portal software, there is no fix for you other than using firefox, chrome or any derivitive browser.

That might as well be an alien language as far as I am concerned.  ;D But, thanks. I will use Chrome.
