Re: Chat Problem With Internet Explorer
-----------------------------------
[quote user="mort" post="57419"][quote user="jefazo666" post="57417"]I know that Internet Explorer sucks, and users that insists in using it suck even more, but I'm sure all of we have these users and they want to use it (don't ask me why  :( ). [/quote]

Please spare us that type of opinion because half of the twits that use IE don't even know or learn how to set it up, or they are using an old version that is incompatible with what is being used today. And I also believe that people have stopped making things backward-compatible for old versions of anything.

If I use IE in my website I get the same error, but I works properly here at www.icyphoenix.com.

I think it's trying to tell you something that's it's not an Icy Phoenix problem.

It works for me with Win8 and IE9 - But you fail to say who is using what, which version of IE they are using and very much little else.

And the other problem is, none of us are mind-readers or beta-testers for other websites who go about changing things. So please install a second "Default" version as a test forum and see if your problems still exist with that?

Because you are having more problems than a cat in a dog pound.[/quote]
I'm sorry mort if anything of I said made any kind of injury in you. I was joking about IE and I don't really think that people who use is it Stupid or something like that. I am not coming here to make enemies or disturb people, my intentions are learn and cooperate. 

For further information, Windows XP allows you to install until internet explorer 8 versions. I would like my website available too for people without money enough to renew their computers, and people without so much knowledge about computers. As a developer, my opinions is that services should be adapted to users, not users adapt to services. 

I don't know why do you think my website has any kind of fix by me. All I did was following the instructions here founded. There are some modifications at styles, but there is a difference too high between the view and the controller. 

Finally, I am sorry for make all this questions, I thought support means support, not support with quota.

Adding info to the main topic:

Users with this problems use Internet Explorer 8 or older. Sorry for don't mentioned it before.
the problem is right here:

./templates/default/ajax_shoutbox_js.tpl

function checkStatus(focusState)
{
	var text = $("#chatbarText");
	var submit = $("#submit");
	submit.attr("disabled", ((text.val().trim() != "") || (focusState == "active")) ? false : true);
}

it seems that internet explorer 8 and olders versions don't acept the submit button to have the disabled attribute. I have been browsing about this in the web, but I don't have any Idea about AJAX, so I can't move fast solving this. Any help will be welcome.
