For some reason, the "carriage return" button doesn't work on this forum for Internet Explorer 10, but does for Firefox. To fix this, while in your IE browser; go to "Tools", "Compatibility View Settings". You will see that "eaaforums.org" is already in the top input text box. Just click the "Add" button to add "eaaforums.org" to your list of compatibility websites and press the "Close" button. Close your browser and then go back into the forum and the carriage return button should now work.

Thanks for this Smitty!

I read up on this a bit, and it's a known issue between the post editor and IE10. VBulletin is apparently working on a fix.

Here is a solution by changing settings within vBulletin forums:


Settings
General settings
Message editor interface
Select "standard editor"
Save changes

Your welcome Hal. There are a lot of websites out there that don't work properly when viewed in Internet Explorer 10. Microsoft needs to test their browser updates a tad more before making them public. There is also a little blue icon at the top of Internet Explorer 10 where the URL is that looks like a torn piece of paper. Clicking on the that icon will also put the browser in the compatibility mode for a website that appears to not be working correctly.

The "compatibility" mode is Microsoft's way of saying "Oopsies, we didn't think about that!".
