Backend forms menu bugged and slow

STDK 11 Jan, 2012
Hey ChronoForms,
Your extention look very practical, so practical in fact that I've downloaded it three times now. Why three times? Well, I download the component, the plugin (and enable) and the modul. When I then go the "Form Wizard", Normal and easy both, it seems my menues are bugged.

Basically the menues are all screwed up, moving outside the boxes. Scrolling dosent work etc.

This is annoying, but unfortunatly it makes it almost impossible to work since it also causes the program (joomla or my own PC) to slow do to a crawl, so drag'n'drop stops working at all.

This was why I deleted Chrono the first two times. I decided to just do the PHP/HTML myself.

Since I now again ended up looking at Chrono's description when looking for something to help me, I decided it was time to write you and ask if there was an easy fix.

I've googled and seached to forum but all I could find was something about older versions of Chrono and Joomla.

Specs are:
Internet Explore 8.0.6001
Joomla v. 1.7.0
Chronoforms_V4_RC3.0_J1.6.zip
Chronoforms_J1.6_V4_RC3.0_Plugin.zip
Mod_Chronoforms_J1.6_V4_RC3.0.zip

Hope you can help me, thanks in advance,

Hi Søren,

The simplest answer is to use a different browser. This seems to happen with IE when it ends up running in IE7 compatibility mode. In IE9, IE9 in IE8 mode, FireFox, Chrome and Safari there is no problem.

Max is aware of this but I don't know if he has managed to diagnose the cause.

See, that's what I was afraid of. Im running an age old PC, stilling hanging onto XP. I had hoped IE8 would be enough to run all joomla extention and accept that HTML5 most likely would require an upgrade/replacement.

Atleast i know it's my PC and not joomla/chrono, so I guess i could do the Chrono from my IPad and the normal coding via netbeans on my PC.

Thanks a lot for the fast reply and I hope the product is as good as the support.
