This theme markup is full of scripts and crap. It's surprising you don't have more conflicts.</p> <p>That said, I found that when I removed the following block of code, the fields were accessible.</p> <pre><code>&lt; script language=&quot;JavaScript1.2&quot; &gt; function disableselect(e){ return false } function reEnable(){ return true } //if IE4+ document.onselectstart=new Function (&quot;return false&quot;) //if NS6 if (window.sidebar){ document.onmousedown=disableselect document.onclick=reEnable } &lt;/ script &gt;</code></pre> <p>So wherever that's coming from.. a plugin of hard-coded in your theme, that appears to be the culprit.. you can see that its applying conditions to NS6 and IE4+ browsers. That would be Firefox and IE.</p> <p>You can see my test page here: <a href="http://bit.ly/xxXsot" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/xxXsot</a></p> <p>Hope that helps. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-not-input-text-when-using-firefox-or-internet-explorer#post-48652 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 22:37:48 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 48652@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Does it work properly in the form preview page? This smells of a theme style issue. Gravity Forms normally work fine in both of these browsers so you've either got a theme or plugin conflict of some sort. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/can-not-input-text-when-using-firefox-or-internet-explorer#post-48648 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 21:46:34 +0000 Barks 48648@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I use Google Chrome and I can input text into my form that was created here:<br /> <a href="http://bnrbc.ca/services/dog-daycare/dog-daycare-application/" rel="nofollow">http://bnrbc.ca/services/dog-daycare/dog-daycare-application/</a></p> <p>BUT when I try to fill the form using Firefox or Internet Explorer I can not place the cursor over a 'single text input' field and type in it. The only way I can type in one of the text boxes is to click on one of the drop-down boxes and use my tab button on my keyboard to get to the other text boxes.</p> <p>I have also tested using Opera and find that it works well. Just not in Firefox and Internet Explorer.</p> <p>Any suggestions? I find that more than half of our customers use Firefox or I.E. so it has increasingly become a problem.</p> <p>Thank you! </p>
