What is with the "Vote Now" button when editing a post?

[Drewmanfu0]

Title says all.

There is no "Submit Changes" or "Done" button, "Vote Now" works to submit changes though.

screen shot please ...

[B3NN3TT]

I got that too; I thought it was funny.

[azbobbybooshay10]

I don't have that...:confused:

Testing

Nope - I get "Save", "Go Advanced", "Delete", and "Cancel" in the thread view.

If I click "Go Advanced" I get "Save Changes" and "Preview Changes". There's also a delete button closer to the top of the page.

Perhaps it happens if you're editing a post that's in a poll?

[Drewmanfu0]

Well it appears to do it randomly, I tried a couple different posts and went back to that one and I get the regular "Save" button.

[Drewmanfu0]

Ok after hitting "Quote" then backing up I was able to get multiple different button configurations.

your battery is dying Andrew... :cover:

[skater]

Maybe it's a Mac thing. :)

I have played around with Safari on their Window's distribution and it is buggy, but I'm not sure if it's because it's a windows client or because the core Safari code is buggy.

Anyone running IE or Mozilla having this issue?

[azbobbybooshay10]

I'm running Firefox and I don't have that problem.

[LinkMan]

Firefox 2.0.0.11 on WinXP SP2, and I have not been able to duplicate the issue. But I don't know if I'm doing the same set of operations that Andrew is going through.

[skater]

Using Firefox 2.0.0.6 under WinXP, I've tried using the "Edit" button to see what I get (since it looks like that's what's happening in Drewmanfu's screen shots). I get buttons that say Save, Go Advanced, Delete, and Cancel.

I went into my CP and switched from the Standard Editor to the Enhanced Editor, and that didn't change anything in Firefox. I just tried it in IE 6.0, and I get the same thing when I have the Enhanced Editor selected (Standard Editor under IE just takes me to the same screen as "Go Advanced" would).

I know I get the same setup with Firefox under Linux. I'll check Konqueror when I get home tonight - it uses the same rendering engine as Safari, I think.

[skater]

Whoa. In Konqueror, if I hit the edit button, then back, then forward, then edit again, the buttons get messed up!

Though it's a bug somewhere (probably the browser since Firefox and IE don't do it), it's sort of falls into the "Don't Do That Then" category for me - it's not very often I would go through those sequence of steps.

Screenshot (after doing it a couple times) attached:

[Drewmanfu0]

I don't mind the bug whatsoever, I just noticed it and thought I would point it out. I have no idea if it is a browser issue or a vBulletin issue.

[FastCougar]

Im posting this message from the wife's new iPhone. I dont see this button.

[DEVIOUSDEV]

Shows up periodically for me too... only when editing a post-inline as far as I can tell though.

And yes, I'm using Safari.

Here's my screenshot from earlier today...

[EternalOne]

I was able to reproduce on Safari myself, but not IE or FF... Gotta be a browser bug...

ttt -- frenchblueC2 pointed me to this topic.
I've been seeing this issue on CEG for a while now. It sounds like it is a VBulletin bug if it occurs on both forums (and possibly other boards that use VBulletin).
