Topic: PunBB javascript is not compatible with InternetExplorer

If i set in IE6.0 security preference "Allow scripting of IE webbrowser control=disable" (it is DEFAULT now for IE) PunBB forms stop working completely. For example, it is not possible to login.

I think it is i good idea remove JavaScripts that is absolutely not needed like: onsubmit="this.start.disabled=true...

Re: PunBB javascript is not compatible with InternetExplorer

PunBB doesn't require javascript to work properly
Let me test this...

Edit: My browser is indeed set like that, and PunBB works 100% as it's supposed to. I can login, etc
Those functions aren't required, they're simply performed when the form is submitted: it makes no difference if they happen or not

Re: PunBB javascript is not compatible with InternetExplorer

I disabled all scripting and, apart from the form not receiving focus automatically, everything works perfectly. Moving this to troubleshooting because it there was a bug with forms and javascript other people would have reported it before now so it must be specific to your setup.
