    If I have time, I'll fire up a VM with latest IE11 and give it a go then. I suspect it will still be the same though, and just refuse to work properly on these boards.

    Test from latest IE11.


    EDIT: Confirmed. Clicking smileys to add them does not work on latest IE11, even with compatibility mode enabled.
