Non Caps Questions

Question

I still can't open discussions that do not have caps in the titles. I believe it is a I.E. issue, but that is the world's most popular browser.

There's no real proof it's the world's most popular browser anymore. By most accounts more people use alternate browsers than use IE. Firefox looks exactly like IE but it works better, why not swap? - rabbitwho, May 16, 2011

Answer 1

If they have double quotes ( " ) in the text they can't be opened using IE.

Don't know about "caps" in the titles though.

I just replaced one post with single quotes ( ' ) and now it works. - ian-hill, May 16, 2011

What you can do to keep it looking normal, put two single quotes ('') you get the same effect and no issues. (I do it myself) ;-P - DJ_Huero, May 16, 2011

I didn't know that. - ian-hill, May 16, 2011

Yea, I do it all the time... EX: http://www.spanishdict.com/answers/190425/best-way-to-phrase-tell-em-how-it-is - DJ_Huero, May 16, 2011

Double single quotes in title and first line. ;-) - DJ_Huero, May 16, 2011

Answer 2

I think you´re right. If you want to continue using IE, you can use a "back door approach" to open these threads by clicking on the icon of the person who has started the thread and from their profile page, click on the thread, opening it.

Yep that works. - ian-hill, May 16, 2011

Answer 3

Maybe you're referring to quotes, which can be solved by the options listed by Julian and Ian. However, if you're talking about using all caps, you should see the rules about posting.

"4. Use correct language Students come here to learn: correct capitalization, grammar, spelling, pronunciation, and punctuation. Chatspeak (lol, cu 2mrow) is not allowed unless as a topic of discussion. The use of ALL CAPITAL LETTERS is not allowed on this site as it is considered shouting and is very rude."
