I analysed the problem and it seems to me this happens because the total number of available tools exceeds 10.

For the programmers: In common/libraries/php/html/table/sortable_table.class.php, the get_page_select_form method adds a page selection form. Forms are not allowed to be nested in HTML. We're already in a form (the one that submits the new course's settings), so IE decides to end the existing form right there and create a new one.

This is also a problem in Firefox, but there the inner form is nonfunctional; if you select a page from the dropdown, you get a Javascript error and nothing happens.

The easiest solution to this would probably be to not hardcode the number of entries per page and pass this in the course form creation code, or to allow the calling code to disable paging altogether.
