Hello to all, we are experiencing a very strange issue with IE7 and 8. We made a little script to show user the login form in our site: he clicks the link Login in the main page and a new little window is opened in the center of the screen, keeping the original page open and not reloaded. You can see it here: http://216.38.48.219/loginprova.php Window opening works fine on every browser we tested, the strange thing happens when you type something in the input boxes of the form: with IE characters appears with a lot of delay. It's not easy to explain, please try to that example link. With all the other browsers, it works regularly. Any ideas?
I tested it and I don't see anything wrong with it - such as delay. Are you sure it's not an issue on your computer?
Thanks a lot for your reply! I just tried it on IE 7 (7.0.5730.13), running on Windows XP, and I confirm that when I type anything in the input box (username or password), characters do not show up at all. Else, trying on IE 8, running on Vista, characters show up, but they appear with that delay (1/2 seconds from the actual action of typing) that I reported. It seems a "rallenty" effect, very ugly. Did you type to write down in those input boxes? Could you give me further feedback? You help is extremely appreciated. Thanks!
i just tried it with IE8 and after you type you have to click somewhere for the text to appear ... but it works fine in Firefox.... if you remove the "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">" the text works but the view breaks .... its not a fix but a start ... ill try to look into it .. maybe something in the js
