Excited Canary 19 Posted October 11, 2009 Yes you are not alone, many people have the problem. There is not a cure, unless archant get on top of it.Though, I think someone said downloading Firefox helps...correct me if wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,755 Posted October 11, 2009 Just press F5 and they will move!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,528 Posted October 11, 2009 Sometimes they block the "post button" and pressing F5 will lose the post you have just typed[:@]But it will no longer be a concern if we keep winning because this message board is a ghost town compared to the losing weekends. I''m sure the advertisers will then move to TWTD[:O] Maybe that''s where all the posters have gone too[;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First Jedi 0 Posted October 12, 2009 "Am back in work next week. Will deal with it."No offense meant Pete - but this problem, along with many others (such as the quote issue that totally reformats the forum, hiding other posts, the HTML escape characters in non-IE browsers) have been around for a long time. We''ve been waiting months for fixes. Why has there been a delay, when some of those fixes would likely take minutes rather than months? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CostaCanary 0 Posted October 13, 2009 There was a thread about this last week and someone came up with the solution. Press the Compatibility button on the address bar which looks like a torn piece of paper. Sorted it out for me. You just have to do it each time you go to the messageboard.

Mister Chops 7 Posted October 13, 2009 What browser types are you using? I use Firefox 3/IE7 and both are fine, is this an IE8 issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First Jedi 0 Posted October 13, 2009 "Press the Compatibility button on the address bar which looks like a torn piece of paper. "I use Chrome or Firefox. I don''t have the "ads" issue, but I get the HTML escape character issue - and we all get the non-closing quotes issue, as that is a server-side bug.
