computer help on this forum. My RETURN enter key does not work when in REPLY boxes?? Like as I type this I cant hit ENTER and have spaces.. Used to be fine but no more.. ENTER key works great in MS WORD, EXCEL etc. Its like some posting setting preference got changed or something. HAs this ever happened to others? Would love to hit ENTER and skip some lines etc.. I just did a NHL points thread and had to make it in MS word where I can space things out and copy / paste it into a box like this one.. HELP!!! Internet Explorer.

[trytrytry]

using GOOGLE CHROME, where Im typing this.. the RETURN/ENTER key works
GREAT

try to click on the compatibility icon (looks like a piece of torn paper) on URL field
reload the page and try again

Why would anyone use IE over safari chrome or firefox? Just sounds like a IE bug that will be corrected on next update.

it is simple english
there is a field in your browser where you enter the web address...like sbrforum.com
on the right side of that field there is a little icon that looks like a torn paper, click on on it...it will ask you if you wanna leave the page or stay...say leave the page...then hit F5...come back to the forum and see if anything changed

hmmm but the page now looks terrible! all the spacing is off, boxes wrong sizes... not great..

but ENTER works

I guess is chrome or nothing rest of the way..

some PCs don't have Chrome and you don't have permission to download software to them, so nice to have IE working well with the forums..

I'm glad it worked out for u guys....going forward, use Firefox or Chrome and you wouldn't have to deal with this nonsense

Also you might wanna download the latest version of IE here http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/i...wide-languages
I think the very latest version has this bug fixed.

[trytrytry]

thanks Russian Rocket..to be sure how do you check exactly what WINDOWS version you have installed. before the download.

click on Help at the top of the window, then about Internet Explorer

[onlooker]

Please ditch IE. Nothing good can happen with that browser.

no I mean what WINDOWS version running not IE.. to download IE newest version you need to know your windows version and BITS ...

So, from what I understand is:

1) You willfully use Internet Explorer
2) Everything works in Chrome (Per usual)
3) You willfully choose not to use Chrome - even though Explorer doesn't work.

good list.

This http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/w...t-32-or-64-bit will explain to you how to look up what version of Windows you have

Even if you have a 32-bit system and try to install the 64-bit, Windows will reject the installation...so it's pretty safe

[ChalkyDog]

no there are PCs I Access that I can not download any new software to thus no Chrome..should I spell it different for you...what is your IQ? you can count the 1,2,3 but I noticed you could not get to 4....so I think your about a 33 IQ..

My IQ is high enough to know, that if something doesn't work in a browser, for example SBR in IE - you use the one that works. Similarly, if a browser can't access certian things, for example a lot of people secure access to work cannot be accessed with anything but IE, then you use the correct browser.

There are multiple browsers to use, and unless I absolutely have to use the terribly inferior product called internet explorer, my IQ level dictates I use the other browsers.

We're trying to help bud, and the main piece of solid advice/help is never willfully choose to use internet explorer. Can you trytrytry to come to terms with that?

thanks Russian..windows 7 64 bit..

yeah I usually turn off the automatic updates for any kind of downloadable software
it's a pretty standard practice for these companies to use the end users as testers...I'm sure IE10 will go through many bug fixes before it will be more or less polished
