[Plugin: wp-forecast] Unable to drag widget to sidebar – IE8

hello wreston,
thanky you for this hint. can you give some further details. does the problem only show with wp-forecast? all other widgets can be dragged?
what version of wordpress do you use?

thx in adavance
hans

Hans, I’m using WordPress 2.8. When wp-forecast is active, using IE 8, NO widgets can be dragged to the sidebar. If you de-activate wp-forecast, widgets can be dragged to the sidebar.

This only happens with IE 8. When using Firefox (3.0.11), widgets can be dragged to the sidebar, when wp-forecast is active.

I have not done any testing with Chrome or Safari.

hello wreston,
okay I think I understand the case now. since I have no IE8 installed, can you test if this only a problem with wp-forecast. does the wordpress standard text widget work correct with ie8?

Hi Hans,
Yes, the standard text widget works correctly with IE8.

When wp-forecast is inactive, all widgets (e.g., text, search, tag cloud, etc.) can be dragged to the desired sidebar. Everything works correctly.

When wp-forecast is active, widgets (e.g., text, search, tag cloud, wp-forecast, etc.) can not be dragged to the desired sidebar.

Hi Hans,
I just downloaaded and installed wp-forcast V2.4. It corrects the problem that I was seeing in V2.4 beta.

Thanks!!!
