Rich-M Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Well many of you have convinced me to switch to IE to avoid the flash and pdf issues I have been experiencing with Chrome, FF, and Pale Moon from time to time only I have an issue that just blows my mind. I cannot complete a purchase on IE. I get all the way to the end, click "submit" and it just sits there. I don't care if its Newegg, Amazon or now it just happened at Staples. I copy and paste the location of the item and then use either Chrome or Pale Moon and it goes right through and it is getting really irritating and it happens on 2 pcs both Windows 7 custom built desktop and Windows 8.1 All-in-One Dell as well. Damn shame someone cannot make a browser that works right, I am going back to Chrome. Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted November 25, 2014 FPCH Admin Posted November 25, 2014 As you know, I use only Internet Explorer. I have noticed with IE 11, when making a purchase, it can take up to one full minute to complete. Perhaps you just didn't give it enough time, Rich?

Rich-M Posted November 25, 2014 Author Posted November 25, 2014 I did wait quite a while a few times but on Chrome or FF I can see something trying to get in whereas on IE nothing happens at all. It is instantaneous on FF or Chrome incidentally. Quote
FPCH Admin AWS Posted November 25, 2014 FPCH Admin Posted November 25, 2014 I have the same problem you're having with IE with Firefox. As Cindy said IE does take some time, over a minute in some cases, but it has never failed me when filling forms. Quote Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
Rich-M Posted November 26, 2014 Author Posted November 26, 2014 This is so frustrating as there is no one browser that will do everything consistently. Quote

IceMan37 Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Try clicking the middle button on your mouse the same way you can bring up another instance of a browser session but instead of using your right mouse to click "complete purchase" click down on your mouse wheel. Works for me when that happens. Your mouse cursor has to be directly over the link though when you do it. Quote
Rich-M Posted November 27, 2014 Author Posted November 27, 2014 I will try that, very interesting. Quote
IceMan37 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I think with mobile markets taking over desktop browser versions (all of them) have suffered a bit. I still like to use IE when I can though I do use Firefox and Chrome also at times. Quote
