Report upgrade bugs here.

It would be fun to have a place to post threads specific to your "today in history" offering. For instance with regards to today's "Donner Party"- a great historical fiction for 3rd 4th grader's to read about or have read aloud to them, is Patty Reed's Doll. It is the story detailing the Donner Party westward migration. The story is unique in that Patty Reed uses the doll she carried in her pocket to tell of her travails. It would be cool to discuss stuff like this- an apolitical sort of thing.

I need to do this, and make an area specific to games like Werewolves too so that purists can avoid my off-topic dalliances.

Lowaicue, try changing to a different skin, then after browsing the board a bit changing back to your favorite. That should resolve CSS cache and js cache issues that would cause typing problems and the password not going to ***s...

Both LadyT and Lowaicue need to do this. I suspect that the java is stuck in cache on their browsers and this should fix it. Reloading new CSS and Java files.
 
Okay, I found a supposed "fix" for the problems people have been having with Internet Explorer. I'd like somebody to test them out if they could.

1. Speed, or lack of it, is becoming a PITA. I now have to enter as a guest, write any response on Word and copy and paste to here. Some threads completely hang up. Same on my iPod so it is not just my comp.
2. iPod sign in very often doesn’t work. Fields don’t clear and password does not convert to dots.
Just thought I’d mensh.

What browser are you using on your iPod? Which one on your computer? I'm hoping the upgrade to the YUI files and serving them from offsite may make this a bit better for you.
 
Chrome is nice too. OMG it is so much faster than Mozilla or IE9, which were already pretty quick. I'm trying to find someplace that gives me the same problems. Which skin are you using? Maybe I have something messed up there...
 
Slide into oblivion

Everything seems to be going swimmingly now. Thanks very much.
Just one more bug to fix:
In the iPod version there is no scroll slide (I don't know the correct name of it, it's just a 'thingy' to me) in the reply with quotation box. It's OK if you are replying to something of one or two lines but anything longer and it cannot be done.

I'll see if I can figure out how to add a scroll bar.

I suspect it's because the Chinese censors take so long deciding if they should let our posts get through.......

Don't believe your own propaganda.
I have never, let me repeat that: NEVER, had an issue with anything being stopped, prevented or slowed by any censor.
Here is an extract from a Google statement last year:

So earlier today we stopped censoring our search services—Google Search, Google News, and Google Images—on Google.cn. Users visiting Google.cn are now being redirected to Google.com.hk, where we are offering uncensored search in simplified Chinese, specifically designed for users in mainland China and delivered via our servers in Hong Kong. Users in Hong Kong will continue to receive their existing uncensored, traditional Chinese service, also from Google.com.hk. Due to the increased load on our Hong Kong servers and the complicated nature of these changes, users may see some slowdown in service or find some products temporarily inaccessible as we switch everything over.

Remember the story of sending two emails, one with the word 'bush' and one with out and the latter would always arrive before the former?
Of course, as an american you cannot possibly believe that your own government monitor the internet....can you?? It's always those dirty commies/democrats/liberals/socialists/blacks/greens/Brits/French/ Ay-rabs. It's never YOU!!!
 
Right, it's uncensored in one place. I'm glad. Quite glad actually, they'll see it doesn't cause as much upheaval as they think it might.

Okay, I added a line of code which should allow you to scroll down and make your post. I tested it on my 'droid and was able to scroll down and post on a huge post. Give it a test and tell me the result. If that doesn't work, maybe I should invest in the "mobile style"...

from hitting the keys to appearance this has taken 1m 15 secs. Not worth trying anymore. Sorry.
