Jay, I've been having a problem I think similar to what was happening to you on facebook. (I noticed that on your wall :D ) Anyway, it's getting truncated. I have a couple of screen shots I'll attach.

Thanks!

I think I was seeing that a while back on here, but when I reloaded the page it went away. Does that fix it for you?

I had that problem a while ago, but not since you updated the site Sir Emeth. :?

Haha, it's me on your screen shot :shock: :cool: :D

That has happened to me before, but it's usually when I check HW on my cell phone, so I just thought it was the phone's issue.

You were there twice.

And yes, that did fix it. Thanks, though.

Hey Y'all,
This might be related to Merashath's problem, but here goes. On PMs and New Posts, sometimes the post area overflows from the background. It's especially noticeable on a PM.

What browser are you using? I am guessing that is an IE problem. Haha. I might be able to fix it, but don't place any bets on it. :P :D

I can reproduce it in Safari 4 and FF 3.7, both on Windows 7. I don't use IE. Ever. :D

I don't really mind it, since it's not too distracting; I mean, I can still browse the site, etc. :D

FF 3.7? On Windows 7? That... is a small demographic. Haha. :D Good thing you don't use IE. :P (Why haven't you upgraded your Safari?)

Alright, well, those two display issues (!=bugs) don't seem to be connected, but they might be. I don't think I have the time to ferret it out though. Are those the only browsers you use?

Very small demographic indeed :D I've been meaning to upgrade Safari to 5 but haven't gotten around to it. I'll go download it and see if it does it in there. :)

Anyways, let me know what you dig up. :)

Well, how embarrassing...I can't replicate the error in Safari 4 anymore. :roll: But it's definitely broken in FF 3.6.4-3.7 (I upgraded during the past few days) The screen-shots are from 3.6.4, but it's still there in 3.7. I'm upgrading to Safari 5 as we speak, so I'll see if it's broken in there too.

{Off topic: I wish I could use Google Chrome: best browser ever! But it doesn't play nice with my internet filter. :( }

Huh, I can't replicate it in FF 3.6.3 (although graphics look blurry, but I think that is connected with a bug I have been having with FF and images and font sizes etc. :P ).

Perhaps it is a bug on their end that will be fixed? Those are the developer's versions aren't they?

Yes, perhaps...but 3.6.4 was a stable release...until I upgraded to the developer's version like a cheeky curious monkey. :) Maybe its some addons I have...Merashath uses 3.6.4 with no problem. I'll look around some more. :)

Hey, eruheran, don't you have a weird screen size? Isn't it not so wide wide-screen? Could that have anything to do with it?

No, it's exactly like yours. I couldn't reproduce the problem in Safari 5, either, Jay. I'm going to try disabling all of my extensions in Firefox and try to isolate if its one of them.

Update: No Dice. Addons and theme disabled does nothing. I might *gasp* try IE8 and see what it does. :)

Update 2: OK, this is weird! Everything works fine in Safari 5. IE8 and Firefox seem to share the same maladies. If I try to post a reply in a NEW forum (like Technology or Worlds) the post box is normal. In an older forum, it's not. PMs in both browsers are messed up. The fact that new forums work makes me think it's something in the forum that was changed, and the old way doesn't want to play nice with my computer. It's not a big deal, but I'm going to try to download Google Chrome and get it to work with my internet filter.

That is strange indeed. :P

Well I tested PMs in Chrome and FF on Ubuntu and they were fine.

It's probably just something with my computer...It'll pass. :)
