Ran across something odd and thought I would post it for any insights or to help someone else.
First, I'm a long time Godaddy customer and I find most associated problems go away if you upgrade to something other than the economy cheapest hosting.
So -- I did a fresh install of 1.5.14 via the godaddy hosting connection, letting it auto install. I've done this lots and lots of times.
Weird thing -- most of it works EXCEPT the NEW buttons in Users, Module management, pretty much all NEW buttons. And while I could CLICK the upload and install button to upload and install templates, it didn't actually do anything. No error, upload browse area went blank, no template. It ignored me. Can't upload components or modules or generate new articles. I CAN click to publish/unpublish mods and components and sample content.
Weird, huh? I thought it might be an install problem initially.
I was using Firefox 3.5.2.
BUT !! Oddly enough, it all works fine with IE8.
So I guess I'm going to have to use IE8 on this site until whatever it is clears up.
I'm going to check my other sites -- I don't think I have .14 on them, .13 I think -- and make sure there's not a similar problem.
Godaddy and Joomla 1.5.14 and IE.
