@Brian1Gaff: Could you confirm whether this is IE8 only? If so, i'll close this as won't fix, since IE8 specific fixes won't be done anymore. |

@Brian1Gaff Could you please respond to @LeonarddeR's #2196 (comment) by confirming whether or not this is IE 8 specific? |

In a nutshell, yes.
I seldom use IE now 8 or anything else as Firefox seems to work far better
for me.
Occasionally you do get some odd controls on web sites but usually this is
down to the strange web site not the browser.
I think that iE8 is now almost unsusable since its only been getting
security fixes and no functional ones at all even in the extended support
the NHS has had running till the end of last year.
So I'd close the ticket and if any similar issues come up it can be asked
that a new ticket is raised as its unlikely to be the same issue.
Incidentally was this a n issue ported over from Trac. I never seem to get
any alerts to any new content on an issue after the move so theere could be
many like this for others as well.

Some button types seem to be reported as unavailable in Internet Explorer, including some on the donation page, which might confuse a new user using IE.
IE8 says..
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (20:09:19):
Input: kb(desktop):shift+tab
IO - speech.speak (20:09:20):
Speaking ('en_UK'), u'Single donation via PayPal', u'button unavailable'
IO - speech.speak (20:09:20):
Speaking ('en_UK'), u'browse mode'
Firefox 3.6 etc says.
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (20:17:38):
Input: kb(desktop):shift+tab
IO - speech.speak (20:17:38):
Speaking ('en_UK'), u'Single donation via PayPal', u'button'
IO - speech.speak (20:17:38):
Speaking ('en_UK'), u'browse mode'
In both cases these buttons do work, so I wondered what was triggering the unavailable status on IE8.
This is not a new phenomenen, but could not find a ticket so...
