The Ink company is a Microsoft shop. They test the web software on
Microsoft browsers. If the older browser on VMS doesn't work, how are
they to know which feature of HTML/javascript/CSS isn't working ?
So one would have to be fairly specific and provide a workaround
solution to make it easier for them to fix it.
What may make things harder is that forum software is often purchased or
taken from open source and if the feature that is the problem isn't in a
part that is easily customizable, your hopes of seeing a fix would be
small.
