He guys, just wanted to give a shout. Firefox 4 (brand new) is loading the headers properly, but the thread listings start to the extreme right, causing the pages to be "double-wide". You have to scroll all the over to the right to read the threads.
The main forum is fine, but the problem occurs when you go into a sub-forum, like this one.
Maybe it's my new installation, but figured I'd point it out.
Thanks!!
I had to switch to IE, not my favorite browser. :( Somebody fixed a really good forum format!!Quote:

I don't think the problem will be addressed. May just be an issue with the Beta version of Firefox.
I've got now the Firefox 4 official release and it is still the sameQuote:

Well, I'm currently forced to use Opera to browse this forum. Haven't liked IE at all, though IE9 is pretty OK now
I'm still looking for a solution, the trouble is you fix it on FF and it breaks elsewhere..
Indeed, same for me too. And Facebook doesn't work normally, but that's another matter.Quote:

ie9 here and everything works just fine :p
Can you give us more details about it ? (maybe Chit Chat not here) ;) as I am considering to upgrade from ie8 and btw I am fine with Explorer so I don't understand why people don't want to use it :confused:Quote:

Personally I prefer IE :p
I've tried the forum with IE8, IE9 and FF3, all of which work fine. It also appears correctly in my mobile browser, which I think is a custom version of Safari.
Another vote for IE9 :up:
Works fine with Opera 11.01 and Chrome 10 too. But I must say that IE9 is the first IE that i actually like, though I'm still not using it very often - UI too unconvenient for me.Quote:

I had that problem in IE7 & eventually discovered that you could scroll right & the login boxes were at the top alongside the top banner (rather than overlayed). Changing the forum display using the scroll down box at the bottom left of the page to BTCCPages, AutoRacing1 or the Motor Sport Forums Alternative solved the problem. Installing IE8 fixed it so that the boxes were back in their normal place with all forum displays. Can't try IE9 - it doesn't run with XP!!
I use FF3 and Chrome and it works fine in both the browsers.
I've removed the header graphic, can anyone tell me if that's made any difference? I haven't got FF4 and can't install it here as I need FF3!
Valve mate, once you're logged in why don't you add the link into your favourite, then move it to your screen so you have the forum icon to click when ever you want to get here ? :)Quote:

Yes.
Ew. Just for poops and giggles I "upgraded" to FF4 and it's horrible. Here's a screenshot of chit-chat as rendered by FF4:

Not good. Back to IE9 for me.
Yep thats what it does on FF 4 for everyone now. Apart from the seeming incompatibility with vBulletin, the actual browsers great with everything else. Couldn't go back to FF3 or even IE9.
I've just tried it for about an hour on various sites, and it's definately slower than IE9. Not much, but it's certainly noticable.
Seems to be fixed for me now!
In Pinguy OS using FF4 it seems to be fixed now. I'll try tomorrow at my work using W7 and FF4.
Thank you very much for fixing the bug.
Everything is OK now. Thanks Mark!
Yes, thanks! OK for me also.
Opera
Mozilla is over rated.
pino, mate, I have had the forum link on my favorites for 10 years already. The problem happens when I clean the hard drive with CCleaner, I have to log on again. Then there was nowhere on the page to log in. :( I think Mark may have fixed it now, so I'll check it out.Quote:

I have to use IE to check my pickems.
To add insult to injury, I was in hospital last friday week, and could not do my pickems. I rang my better half to help out to post my selections, but she refused point blank as it had something to do with motor racing. :(
It's fixed now :up: Mark has done a superb job!!!!
Stop installing crap on your PC!!!!!!Quote:

It will pop up momentarily for anout half a second when I try to post a thread, then I get the full box for logging in at the middle of the page.Quote:
