Quirky behavior when using IE with Banana Scrum
I've noticed that if I use Firefox, Banana Scrum works well. If I use MS Internet Explorer, there are some quirks. For example, in IE, if I expand a backlog item, the description does not show up unless I roll my mouse pointer over the item title. Also, if the backlog item has tasks, they will not appear unless I click "new task" with my mouse pointer. Then, I can cancel the new task and the current tasks remain showing.
So I guess this application works best with non-Microsoft browsers? I believe I've been told before that Microsoft doesn't always follow standards in their browser implementation.

I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?Our development platform is Firefox, but we do test Banana Scrum with other popular web browsers like IE, Opera and Safari. Thanks for pointing out the quirks, we will look into the problem and let you know.
-
Inappropriate?Is this problem persisting?
-
Inappropriate?Yes. I just tested it and the quirks I described above still happen in Internet Explorer for me. Mozilla Firefox still works fine.
I’m Hopeful

Inappropriate?The behavior is a little inconsistent for us. I'm attaching a screenshot:

Sometimes the description will show up. Sometimes I can't even get the backlog item to expand in IE.
Most of us use Firefox. However, there are product owners who want to use IE.
I’m frustrated.
