Question

IE10 CP and this Forum

Windows 8 Consumer Preview is available, and within it we find a new build of Internet Explorer 10.

Alas, while it offers some new and interesting features, it is not without its problems as regards presenting this forum.

1.   I don't seem to be able to put double quotes around anything without them becoming escaped.  The following bolded phrase "has double quotes around it" as typed by the single shifted character to the right of my little finger when on the the home keys.

2.  I don't seem to be able to upload an image via IE10.  I'll try showing what happens in a response to this post using IE10, but if I have to I'll post it with IE9.  I'm not sure yet whether it consistently or only intermittently fails.

Adobe / Jive folks, it seems to me that it would be a good idea to get at least a virtual machine running IE10 CP and try to understand why these things are happening.  The world is feverishly downloading Windows 8 CP.

    That part, at least, looks like an IE10 problem, not one of the forum software.  IE10 seems to convert your quotation marks into HTML entities.

    Here's what it looks like when I try to post a picture...  It sticks here sometimes after selecting the file and choosing Insert Image...  I was able to get it to work properly in IE10 this time...

    Have you Tried FireFox?

    I'm not looking for a workaround, Phillip.  Just trying to let the powers that be know that a new browser release is coming that may not be a shoo-in with the forum software.

    Pat, I'm able to enter double quotes in other forums with it, so I suspect that while you could reasonably say it might be an IE10 problem, only one of the two (IE10 / Jive) is an 800 lb gorilla.

    But now is precisely the time when someone at Jive and/or Adobe should have the IE10 beta running, and be submitting integration issues back to Microsoft with the Send Feedback Tool, which is available here:  http://connect.microsoft.com/ie
