Hi,

When using Internet Explorer the drop down menus don’t look / work correctly.

Firstly, there is a double arrow head, then on first click it highlights the drop down box, it is then necessary to select it again before the options appear.

Screen shots of the issue:
Drop down not selected, double arrows => http://www.screencast.com/t/QGAKZbnwuqj2
First click, selects the drop down => http://www.screencast.com/t/6mYqkEDs8nwA
Second click is necessary to select an option => http://www.screencast.com/t/1XTm8Pdl

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you, that has resolved the double arrow problem.
Please can you also advise how to resolve the issue where it is necessary to have to double click on the drop down before the list appears.

Many thanks
David
