Got a new tablet this week.  It runs Windows RT.

I noticed today I could not get the little hotlink button to work.

I actually tried every button across the bottom of the text entry box, and the last four in the row, I can't get to do anything.  I think they are the image insert, movie shutter looking thing, hotlink, and the envelope symbol.

I assume the problem is with my new device, just wondering if this is a known issue, and if there is a workaround.

Can you download a different browser?

Hey Charlie,

I just tried it out on a Surface RT device and I had the same problem with the last 4 buttons if using the Immersive IE version (From the Start Screen)

If you use the standard version of IE from the desktop, they all work...

Ok, that worked.  This version may take a little getting used to.

The keyboard doesn't pop up automatically when tapping into a text field.  That may not be a bad thing, just different.

Thanks!!!
