Editing comments doesn’t work properly in IE

Hello everyone. I am the coordinator of the Ontario Blogs Project, http://www.ontarioblogs.com , and have run into an IE problem that I hope someone can help me resolve.

Our users are K-12 teachers and students. We have assigned students “contributor-level” accounts and teachers “editor-level” accounts. Therefore teachers “publish” the student articles and must also approve (moderate) comments before they are published.

This system is working well for us if users are using Firefox or Netscape. Teachers can make edits to comments before they publish them (and afterwards as well). We do unfortunately have many schools that are using IE only :-(.

Using IE, when an editor-level user edits a comment, (either before or after it’s been published), the user initially is taken to the “Edit Comment” screen, e.g. /post.php?action=editcomment&comment=38 as you would expect. However, clicking on the “Edit Comment” button takes the user to the “Write Post” screen, e.g. wp-admin/post.php. The comment text appears as a post and clicking on the “Publish” button posts it as a new article under the editor-level user’s name.

Can anyone help me with this? I will of course recommend that users use Firefox or Netscape if they have a choice, but unfortunately a lot of them don’t.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can give me.
