Gerrit is known to not work in Internet Explorer. As an open source developer, my primary desktop system runs Linux. My portable laptops all run Mac OS X, because its shiny. I have no system capable of running Internet Explorer, nor do I desire to send dollars towards Redmond in order to obtain an OS license in order to do so. Something is busted in the IE AJAX code used by Gerrit Code Review. I'm guessing that instead of making the data available to the AJAX callback, IE wants to save it as a file on disk. No clue why. And due to the lack of IE, I am unable to debug the problem myself. I am waiting for someone who really cares about using IE to debug it and contribute the patch back.
I've found IEs4Linux helpful for debugging IE-only issues under Linux. http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page I don't recall, off hand, if it'll provide IE 7 (and the site isn't working for me right now, so I can't confirm this). It does provide IE 5.0, 5.5, and 6.0, however. -Jacob
