In a website that has asked me to enter my user name and password, then click Sign in. When I do this it takes me back to the home page of the website rather than into the back end.

This function works perfectly when I use Explorer

I have already tried all of those options and still having the same problem. The website responds perfectly when I use IE, which I do not like to use.
