[Bug 25803] New: Internet Explorer: unable to save patron edits or view patron checkouts
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25803 Bug ID: 25803 Summary: Internet Explorer: unable to save patron edits or view patron checkouts Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 19.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: Browser compatibility Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: janet.mcgowan@ptfs-europe.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org This is on the staff interface. On 19.11 sites using Internet Explorer 11 we have found 2 issues: - /members/memberentry.pl make an edit to a patron record and click Save. The page does not save. - If a user has checkouts, on /members/moremember.pl in the issues table no issues are displayed. Click on Always show checkouts immediately and no issues are displayed. I marked this as Major as we still have customers with organisations restricted to using IE. Thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This is on the staff interface. On 19.11 sites using Internet Explorer 11 we have found 2 issues:
- /members/memberentry.pl make an edit to a patron record and click Save. The page does not save.
This is cause by a JavaScript error stemming from a change to members.js in Bug 14570 - Make it possible to add multiple guarantors to a record. Line 169 of the file introduces the use of template literals (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_l...) which are unsupported in Internet Explorer 11 and before. I'm inclined not to make accommodations for a browser which is so old. Internet Explorer 11 was first released in 2013. Since then two newer Microsoft browsers have been released: Edge in 2015, updated in 2019 to the Chromium-based version. The latest version of Edge is available for Windows 7, 8, and 10.
- If a user has checkouts, on /members/moremember.pl in the issues table no issues are displayed. Click on Always show checkouts immediately and no issues are displayed.
I could not reproduce this problem even in IE11. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25803 --- Comment #3 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- Iirc we are not officially supporting IE for the staff interface, but only for the browser. But could only locate a note in the manual: https://koha-community.org/manual/20.05/en/html/intro.html?highlight=explore... Is support of browser versions something we should discuss at the next meeting? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

(Many of these clients having their browser usage forced on them by corporate IT policies.) I'll submit my patches here whether or not the community chooses to accept them. Maybe we should default me as the Assignee for the "Browser compatibility" component, as I'm going to be supporting IE for as long as I work at Prosentient Systems. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25803 --- Comment #5 from David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au> --- Admittedly despite me saying that I'd look at fixing it, I haven't had the time, and based on the info from Owen, it might not be trivial to do such a fix. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25803 David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #6 from David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au> --- Ok looking at this again... Using https://babeljs.io/, it's suggesting the following. Replace: $(`.guarantor-details[data-borrowernumber=${borrower.borrowernumber}]`).length; With: (".guarantor-details[data-borrowernumber=".concat(borrower.borrowernumber, "]")).length; However, I notice ./koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/lib/kjua/lib/dom.js uses template literals as well, and there might be other Javascript that does too. As Owen said, really there's no reason people should be using computers without Edge, and Edge supports newer Javascript, so I think the best solution might actually be to push back on Intranet users and advise that the Koha Intranet isn't fully compatible with older browsers like IE 11. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
