rad text box not working properly in IE

[Mark]

Hello, I have page with several rad textboxes - and one of them doesn't work right in Internet Explorer (IE 9).  It works fine in all other browsers.
The issue is that you can't click on it to type into the box.  BUT, if you hover over the border (very edge of the textbox), you get the Text Mouse Pointer that allows you to click on it and type.  But, just clicking on the textbox in the type area doesn't work.

It works great in Chrome and FireFox.

How to overcome this issue?

Hello Mark,

It is very strange that only one of the textboxes is not working properly in IE 9. Most probably there is something specific which you have added for the problematic textbox. Can you double check the code and see with what it differs from the others?

Yeah, I looked at that.  They are identical with the exception of their ID's. (copied and pasted).
I didn't know if anyone had come across this issue in the past or not - and if so, how it was fixed.
If there's anything you can think of, please let me know.

Thanks

I wish I could send you a link, but the site is still in BETA and this is proprietary to a specific client and we don't want our code out there.  HOWEVER, here is a sample of what it looks like on the page:  (please note that the onkeyup - is taken from your examples on other forum topics - and the other textboxes on the page contain the same functionality and they are working properly.)

      <asp:Panel Style="float: left;" runat="server" ID="TemplateFieldsPNL" Visible="True">
          <div style="padding: 6px;">
              <table>
                  <tr>
                      <td style="width: 70px; padding-bottom: 8px;">
                          <asp:Label ID="lblHeadline" runat="server" Text="Headline:"></asp:Label>
                      </td>
                      <td colspan="2" style="padding-bottom: 8px;">
                          <telerik:RadTextBox ID="HeadlineTextTB" onkeyup="validateLimit(this,55)" MaxLength="55" TabIndex="1" Width="400px" runat="server" />
                      </td>
                  </tr>
                   ....<%--more code--%>
                   ....<%--more code--%>
                   ....<%--more code--%>
                   ....<%--more code--%>
          </table>
</panel>

Hi Mark,

When I use your markup it is working correct in IE, I am using the latest version of RadControls. If I remember correctly in Q1 there was a bug in the span element of RadInput, and it was not possible to be clicked in some versions of IE in some circumstances.

Try to run your site using the latest version of RadControls.
Also inspect the input element of the TextBox and see if some of your CSS rules is not applied to the input by wrong specificity..
