Ringer<IMG src="http:forums.livingfrance.comimagesline.gif"><BR>Ringer (85)<BR> Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Can anyone tell me how to solve a little problem i have? Whenever i am browsing through old topics on any forum, whenever i back out of a topic i am returned to the first (most recent) page of items. This means that if i want to look at older topics i have to click on the "Next 15" until i get back to where i want to continue browsing. Does anyone know how to avoid this delay? Thanks.

Ex Forum Admin Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Not really sure what you mean by this. Could you use the back button on your browser instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miki Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Ian,Any idea how someone using firefox can get the italics, text change etc, colour icons etc working. All OK of course with IE but now with Mozilla and they are no longer there ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianhaycox Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Miki, Not sure what you mean ? If I can't see it I don't know if I'm missing it :-)I use Firefox and press CTRL and use the scrolling wheel mouse button to change text size, is that one of the features ?Colour icons and italics ? Got an example post to demonstrate and I'll view in FF and IE 4 URegards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianhaycox Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Oh you mean like this, up and down etc. with italicsI didn't even know those controls existed :-) They don' show up in Firefox. I had to use IE to do the stuff above. Couldn't see any option, even in IE, to make coloured text.Looks like it must be some sort of incompatability/bug with Microsoft and Mozilla. I know there are some Javascript issues with IE/Firefox, it might be one of those. Maybe the LF IT guys can shed more light ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miki Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Thanks Ian,Oh well, I guess I will have to go to I/E if I feel the need to post with the bits and bobs attached then ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smilies and other features aren't available to all browsers, such as firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
