Can’t Post using IE but Firefox is Fine
-
I installed the latest version of WordPress 2.0 a few days ago from scratch, not an upgrade, and everything works flawlessly when using Firefox (version 1.5) (so impressed by how easily it went). Another user/editor uses IE (not sure which version) and she can view the blog and login to her account, but when she clicks “Write a Post” and the browser tries to load wp-admin/post.php, the page starts to load (title bar changes) but it spins forever without ever displaying anything in the window (the status bar at the bottom slowly grows but stalls out at five segments). I replicated the exact-same behavior using my (rarely used) copy of IE (Version 6) (Blog loads; I can login; I can’t “Write a Post”).
That’s all you need to understand my problem, but for those that care, some even more techie analysis follows: I think it’s a javascript hiccup, because if I “View Source” from Firefox, save the output directly to a test.html file on the same webserver, the same thing happens, and then if I delete the first five or six “<script></script>” blocks, and load the file in IE, it renders.
I’m sure this is specific to my installation, because this sounds like too significant a problem to be universal, but any ideas?
