Three things I am seeing

Postby the knob » Tue Jan 22, 2008 1:06 pm

1. The software no-likey my sig and several others that I see, but it is correct HTML and worked on the old forum.
2. Links no longer open in new windows (IE for browser) when clicked, would be nice to have that back.
3. I can't right click and View Source in IE, the source doesn't come up for some reason. I'm able to view source for other sites in IE, and can view source for LGB in Opera. Is there some sort of "view source preventer thingy" in this version of phpBB?

HTML is not allowed for security reasons. I'll be adding more BB codes though, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Thanks. I'll look into that.

What version of IE are you running? I can view source just fine. I am running version 7.

IE 6.something, can't copy and paste the exact version from the dialog (stupid Microsoft).

One other thing I've seen twice now is I'll go into a forum, read a message, hit the back arrow to go back to the forum, and posts that were showing as unread and I have not viewed then show the read icon. Had it happen once here and once in the Blues forum.

Update, pretty sure it was the "New Forum -- A Few Things -- READ THIS!!" thread in both cases. Maybe there is something weird going on with it being in several forums?

I am not able to reproduce that issue.

This was on purpose so the phpbb3 software would conform and be xhtml compliant. But I say screw that.
I fixed it to where links open up in a new window/tab...just like on the old forum.
Enjoy.

Haven't had a chance to play with this on my home machine with IE, but lots of stuff (Java, Javascript, etc.) turned off. Still can't view source in threads, but can when in forums. Probably no biggie, just something I noticed when I was trying to check out other people's sigs in a hope to get mine working again.

Couldn't you just redo your sig with BB codes instead of html?

Will do! I didn't think it was possible yet due to Curt's initial response, made it sound like he needed to add to his package first.

Yeah, sorry...I wasn't thinking. My bad.

Hey, I don't want to know about Curt upgrading his package and how that affects your signature, mkay?

It's annoying to have to mark each forum as topics read to make them go away. Granted not a problem; just input
