Software Problems: No Tab Using IE

Well, this is interesting. I just tried IE and there's no tab under public profile when logout.

I think there are some software compatibility issues here.

A. User Logout:
For SanDiego1K, since the 1st tab in Firefox is "Visitor Messages", I only see one whole box, "Showing Visitor Messages 1 to 1 of 1", with the message shown. No more room for the personal profile (i.e. the "About Me" tab).

For jbfield, the supposedly 1st tab in Firefox is "About Me". When using IE, it shows "About jbfield" with all the profile info (Interests, Occupation...etc).

B. User Login:
We are supposed to see 5 tabs. Since IE is having problems with FT tabs, only the 1st tab gets displayed, which is the "Visitor Messages" tab in Firefox. So if you are using IE, you get to see the message type-in box and the message, if there's one left for you.

Since there's only room for 1st tab in IE and the "About Me" is the 2nd one in line, it has to go MIA. No one gets to see anybody's personal info when logged in.

I guess IB has to figure out how to solve the "unexpected" IE compatibility problems, now that FT behaves differently under IE.

It seems our new FT is more Firefox friendly. I always enjoy FT much better using Firefox anyway. Maybe those IE users should give Firefox a try now. @:-)

Let me guess, an IE user, right?
