Forum Upgrades

Forum Issues - sorry if I missed a post about these, but I can't find these already listed.

1. The reply button is only on each post, not on the thread itself. If this was done on purpose to get more people to quote rather than just reply, then ignore my rambling.

2. I have to log in every time I hit reply.

3. This edit window likes to go back two spaces rather than just one when I hit the backspace key! Not every time, about every 3rd time.

Moved to a more appropriate location.

1. This is done by design, not to force you to quote every time but to allow threaded mode to be of use in the future because it does come in handy even if you don't like threaded moded like me.

2. You most likely need to delete your cookies. There is an explanation of this in the News and Announcements forum.

3. Hmmm.. Sounds like a browser issue. What browser version are you using and what edit box (No editing tools, Standard, or WYSIWYG) are you using?

1) http://www.sitepointforums.com/showt...threadid=97280 - you can use quick reply (and go advanced) without quoting

2) http://www.sitepointforums.com/showt...threadid=97140

3) Sounds like a browser issue - specs please

That solved 1 & 2, thanks! As for #3, it looks like it works fine in plain IE 6, but when I use Netcaptor (an IE wrapper) is when I see the problem. This browser doesn't seem to *love* this edit window, but I can learn to live with that I need my browser tabs, lol.

Thanks everyone!

Yes, Netcaptor seems to have some problems with different things. Even though it is an IE wrapper, they can put their own interpretation on some things.
