    Hi,

    it seems like TablePress crashes IE8 and below. I have tried disabling all plugins, and only when i activate TablePress (also alone) IE crashes.

    I have not been able to track down the error.

    Would appreciate it if you could track down the error and release a fix (alot of people still use IE8, sadly).

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
    This is really strange, and I haven’t really seen this before…

    Are you using the latest version of TablePress and WordPress.
    And does this also happen when using a WordPress default theme like TwentyFourteen? (Just to rule any influence by your theme.)

    Regards,

    No this is with a custom theme, jusing the latest version of both WordPress and Tablepress. I have disabled all other plugins.

    The problem occurs in IE8. I have not testet IE7.

    I debugged the scripts in Tablepress, and it seems like it is the TablePress font that is causing the problem. By commenting out the font-face section of default.css the problem disappears.

    Hi,

    yes, but does the problem also happen after you switch to the WordPress default theme TwentyFourteen?

    If the icon font is the problem, you could install this TablePress Extension to work around the problem (although it was developed for a slightly different use case):

    Hi again,

    it did not crash with TwentyFourteen. I found the problem with my theme. It was an old theme and used Modernizr 2.0.6 – this crashed with the TablePress-font. Updating to Modernizr 2.6.2 solved the problem.

    Thanks for the help 🙂

    Hi,

    no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 Great to hear that you were able to find the reason for the issue!

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
