I post a spoiler.

It opens in Firefox. It doesn't open in IE.

Why's that, then?

I guess it is because IE is a bit crap at times

Also depends on the skin you are on... mobile(beta) doesn't have the spoiler feature activated, and what version of IE you are running as works on some.

Do people with a choice actually use IE (obviously it's pretty common in work enviroments)

Though I have just tested it with IE8, IE9, IE10, and IE11 and they all work... confused

Firefoxes have sharp claws, so they can rip through the packing tape more easily. Internet Explorers have to wait for the native guides to show them how to do it.

Was it a front or rear spoiler ?

IE11.

Not saying this always happens, but has with two spoilers I posted. I can open those posted by others ( , the lot of you)

This is the current culprit

That works for me in Firefox

However if I use "company property" and look at that thread in IE8 the spoiler doesn't work for me......

Thank you. I thought my sanity was deserting me.

Bugger, shouldn't have said that, should I?

Whoah...I can open that.

PS, Mr Pete, I case you're interested, that earlier one I can't open...it opened for me in preview before I posted it.
