URGENT: Running the editor under IE #106

Closed BillFoster closed 11 years ago

Is not working! Use IE to go into any question which you can edit and you get only half of the question. This is true in any numbas editor site. Or it fails to load after coming out and back in again.

Confirmed. Fix is just to clear your cache.

Will other users need to be told this?

anthonyyoud commented 11 years ago

It'll not happen for everyone. It just depends what state the browser was last in.

This is a general quirk of browsers caching JS, and can happen anywhere. I suppose we could put some kind of message on the editor home page, or at the top of an exam/question saying if half the question appears to be missing, try to clear the browser cache.

OK good idea, I'll raise that as an issue

BillFoster commented 11 years ago

Still getting the same problem after clearing the cache

BillFoster commented 11 years ago

When first entering a question in the editor using IE, all of the question is displayed, however when you then leave a question and try to load another question it freezes on loading.

Which questions? I can't reproduce this.
