I'm using Microsoft Internet explorer, and I can see the box and type in it, but when I try to preview or post, nothing happens.

How can this be fixed?

Hurrah, glad it's all working(ish)!

Chipping - could've sworn we mailed you about this, but clearly we must not have - v sorry about that!

Not sure about that whole "resetting" thing, will see if Tech have any pearls of wisdom.

KateSMumsnet · 12/11/2013 13:00

Right, have consulted with the mighty Tech and apparently you can get around it by disabling compatibility mode.

This handy article explains it far better than I could, so have a bash and shout if you're still stuck.

Hi Kate

No - no email (well, not until the one I got telling me you had updated here!), never mind :)

I'll go and have a go now and see how I get on :)

ChippingInLovesAutumn · 12/11/2013 22:41

Right - well, I've done that - I'll report back tomorrow :)

Mine isn't working still. Lost yet another helpful post as I had to switch on tools to IP9. I don't have time or truthfully inclination to repost or read lengthy techie documents.

AbbyLou · 14/11/2013 22:00

I pressed the compatibility icon and it has worked. Hurray!

ChippingInLovesAutumn · 16/11/2013 07:39

veryconfused - it's not lengthy or techy :) It was easy to do and appears to have worked :)

Thanks Kate & Mighty Tech Flowers

I've been having the same issue.. in Firefox though

CrispyHedgehogFucker · 16/11/2013 07:54

CanadianJohn · 16/11/2013 18:28

Just to let MN know, IE is working fine for me now. Thanks.

SconeRhymesWithGone · 17/11/2013 00:19

I have not been able to post in IE8 for days. I could until about a week ago. I had to switch to Firefox, but I much prefer IE. When I try to post, it says error on page.

MrsOsbourne · 19/11/2013 16:42

Hopefully this will work !

MrsOsbourne · 19/11/2013 16:43

Yes!
I thought I had been banned Blush

KateSycoraxMumsnet · 21/11/2013 10:36

So everyone sorted-ish?

DorisShutt · 03/12/2013 08:13

I'm using this thread as I can't start a new thread at all.

I've emailed you at the contactus address, but wasn't sure which was quicker.

Anytime I click on start a new thread, it won't let me - it just redirects me to the infamous biscuit page.

I'm running Chrome (latest version) on a windows 7 PC, and I've also tested it on Mozilla Firefox and IE10.

I've also tried it on the mobile site on an iphone using Chrome and Safari.

Please help!

AmyMumsnet · 03/12/2013 10:43

Hi everyone,

Sorry that it seemed to have gone wonky again. Tech think they've fixed it now - is anyone still having problems?
