Anyone else having trouble on GLP with Internet Explorer? Firefox works fine.
IE won't let me post smilies or do the BOLD thing, etc.
All is fine when using Firefox.

Is this a GLP issue or my IE issue?

Calling for geektard help, please...

Are you the only person left who still uses IE?

If Firefox works, why not just use Firefox? IE is utter crap. I use a variety of browsers (but not IE) and I have no problems with GLP.

I don't use IE, except to verify how fucked up it is.
A fellow GFLP'er asked me about it not working for them,
so I tried it. Doesn't work for me, either.

I am using IE right now. of course, I only use one horsepower to get around, a real fossil....

it is a far better way to use GLP than Firefox, many small differences that add up.

and yes, something is definitely up with GLP and IE right now, for a couple days.

IE worked superbly just until a couple of days ago. I thought I had eaten too many oats that evening - could not do any of the things listed above.

the differences to Firefox are pretty fundamental - lots clearer font, different pop-up boxes for karma, less distracting stuff on the toolbar.

hope we get it working again!

Thanks Torchie. I know there will come a day when I will have to give up my IE, but I'm going to hang on to it for as long as I can. I just recently had to give up my win7 and I still haven't recovered. I don't like change unless it's for the better.

I can't fathom a single reason why anyone would insist on using IE other than they are averse to change. Even Microsoft Edge is better than IE, and that's a pretty sad statement by itself.

what works for you, works for you. The issue is not the merit of a particular vehicle, but the fact that IE stopped working three days ago for GLP.

oh you can look and post letters.... but no smilies, no bolding, no ability to give karma!

all of a sudden, conincidentally at the same time as the privacy shit.

Pretty sure MS stopped supporting IE11 with the advent of Edge. So like Win 7, it's gonna get wonkier and wonkier.

It's a trap. Chrome doesn't spell check without sending all keystrokes back to Google. SOo either GLP is trying to out bad spellers, ooor Google wants your key strokes.
It's all part of the mindphuck control bullshit we are seeing going on all over the internet since the ground began to shake under the pillars of the Deep State. Benghazi started the tremors, don't forget.
