I was having the very same problem until I read this thread:

EMU Steve provided the fix:
From www.detroityes.com, go to IE menu, Tools, Compatibility View Settings, and add this site. From www.detroityes.com, go to IE menu, Tools, Compatibility View Settings, and add this site.

Folks,

I normally use Chrome and don't have the issue. I was able to reproduce the issue with IE11. The Compatibility View seems to work.

Lowell, you may be able to force document modes via the HTML header.

Seriously. Google Chrome.

Unless you're using a work computer where you can't use another browser, why subject yourself to an inferior browser?

Let me just point out that Google Chrome has a whole other set of issues. I jump back and forth between IE and Chrome. There are issues with both.

Well, "Damn it" came out alright, so you got your point accross. Have you tried the Compatibility View" fix? It worked for me.

Firefox also works. Several options to pick between.

There is only one case which doesn't: IE 11 w/out compatibility view.

However between the two, only one has security flaws so glaring and egregious that the US Government actually recommended that people stop using it.

It's nothing that a few dozen patches and updates can't solve.

Computers were supposed to make our lives easier. Right?

Please tell me what issues Chrome has that makes you use Internet Explorer instead. I will await your answer with baited breath.

In order of ranking: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE. [[Yes, I'd rather use Safari than IE). The only reason I ever use IE is because my state government IT job requires it for remote access.
