File Browse button wierd in IE9??

JeffP 27 Jul, 2012
I have tested my form, which has 3 Browse buttons on it, in Mozilla, Chrome, Opera and IE.

In IE the file Browse button is wierd.

When the form is first opened you can click any Browse button and the browse dialog appears, but only once. After closing the dialog none of the buttons work again. A single click appears to do nothing, a double click appears to depress the button, but no dialog appears.

But a double-click on the associated field for any Browse button always displays the dialog.

So you get one go at any Browse button, but no more, though you can dbl-click on any field.

Is there any fix to this?

Hi JeffP,

I've not see this problem before. Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Hi Bob.
Sorry for the delay. Been away a couple of days.
I have just PM'd you with all the details so you can have a look.
Thanks

Hi Jeff,

I can't say I understand this but it seems to only occur in IE9 in IE9 mode when there is a JavaScript error thrown from the Tiny MCE rich text editor you are using just before the file uploads.
The Error is

SCRIPT5: Access is denied.
tiny_mce.js?version=224, line 1 character 110007

and there seems to be some clues in this StackOverFlow post

The simplest fix is probably to push the page into using Compatibility mode in IE9. Please see this FAQ

Thanks for looking at that for me Bob.

That's a real interesting error as I have JCE as the default editor and the TinyMCE plugin disabled. The text areas above are using JCE with a specific editor profile, and it seems to be working fine.

Question is, why would there be a TinyMCE error if I have it disabled?

I did follow that FAQ and added the code and it did fix the problem, but still a mystery about TinyMCE being used.
