IMHO having used for a while now,  this latest bulletin board version is a regression on the previous version when it comes to adding and editing messages.
Maybe it just doesn't work with latest IE but things just don't work like smilies, bullets etc.  The previewed code has lots of style formats in it that you have to then edit out etc. have to add 2 blank lines to get one in final submission.
I know it's nothing to do with Cytech as not your code but really is a rubbish release from the people that make this thing. 
Posting messages used to be simple,  now it's more of a faff!
Here's hoping for another upgrade soon to fix the "lemon" of a release this one is!

I dont have any of these problems with Firefox
Is there any reason to use IE with these better browsers around?

style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"Maybe you should have a poll of what browsers people use to use this forum and then fix any issues for the masses.
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"I'm using IE 11!

It is not possible for Cytech to fix the problem with the forum. we can only ditch it and migrate to another one which we do not want since there is a long history and  a lot of content on this one
 
But I suspect that not many people are using IE anymore since you don't see many posts with these issues
 
No problem on Chrome as well
This post was done using IE - but its the 1st and last time

style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"I'm not suggesting for a moment that you ditch the forum as it is great! 
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"They, "Ultra BB", just seem to have a crappy release at the moment when it comes to IE support so where best place to feed this back to them?
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"Hopefully they can fix at some stage and you can upgrade again to fix in the future.  Till then us minority IE users will just have to struggle on!  :0)
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6e1d7"BTW what IE version did you use as a one-off.

There is an UltraBB forum at http://www.ultrabb.net/forum/

But it seems quite inactive

It's very dangerous to exclude certain people and their browser preferences(discrimination comes to mind)... Some like IE some don't, you have to make provision that everyone can visit your board and post without any issues.

My 2c worth :-)

Let me try.

First improvement.  I used to have to click the font dropdown to get the workspace to unlock (quicker) for entry but that seems straight away now.

  • Bullets now work!  hurrah
some stuff - hey been a while since this worked for me!

:P as do these!

Lets hope no random style sheet info on save.

Looking good though I must say...IE is back...three cheers!

Jules
