Change payment method not working in Internet Explorer after upgrade to VM 3.8.2

[Thomas Kampp]

The subject says it all Change payment method is not working in Internet Explorer (ver. 11) after upgrade to VM 3.8.2. It flickers and then returns to the previous state/selection (that was on load of the cart view).

I know Internet Explorer is horrible, not supported and dead - but 7,8 % of my customers users use it due to some government regulation.

If this only happens with ie, then it is probably a Lost case.

True (and rightfully so). I just wonder why it has worked until the newest release of Virtuemart? What and why was it changed... and could that part work with the old working code?

[AH]

I just tested and selection on delivery or payment methods fails to hold selection using IE 11

That is a bug as it used to function on 3.6 the JS has changed in 3.8.3 - there is no reason for it not to work!

That is done without js. Disable the ajax for the cart, maybe.

This has been fixed for ie11 in VM

[Thomas Kampp]

You mean fixed by disabling AJAX for the cart?
What implications (downsides) does that have?

[Jörgen]

Disabling AJAX is not neccessary any more. Max has made a bug fix for this in the next release.

Perfect - when will this be released?

This is the proposed fix:

Components/comvirtuemart/views/cart/view.html.php

Around line 542, change the javascript to what is shown below

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
   var chkOutBtn = jQuery("#checkoutFormSubmit");
   var form = jQuery("#checkoutForm");
   
   jQuery("#checkoutForm").find(":radio, :checkbox").bind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   
//   jQuery(".output-shipto").find("input").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   jQuery ("input[type=radio][name=shipto]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   jQuery ("input[type=radio][name=virtuemart_paymentmethod_id]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   jQuery ("input[type=radio][name=virtuemart_shipmentmethod_id]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   
   jQuery(".output-shipto").find(":radio").bind("change", function(){
      chkOutBtn.attr("task","checkout");
      
      '.$updF.'
      form.submit();
   });

Confirmed. Seems to work. Thanks

[Milbo]

Actually, it was Andrew who found the fix.

this is what will probably be released to live

jQuery(document).ready(function($){
   var chkOutBtn = jQuery("#checkoutFormSubmit");
   var form = jQuery("#checkoutForm");
   
   $("#checkoutForm").find(":radio, :checkbox").bind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   
   $ ("input[type=radio][name=shipto]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   $ ("input[type=radio][name=virtuemart_paymentmethod_id]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   $ ("input[type=radio][name=virtuemart_shipmentmethod_id]").unbind("change", Virtuemart.autocheck);
   
   $ ("input[type=radio][name=shipto]").bind("change", function(){
      chkOutBtn.attr("task","checkout");
      
      '.$updF.'
      form.submit();
   });
});';
