    Middle button isn't working well. Stops after a few seconds automatically. Doesn't matter though because if you have a middle "button", its usually a wheel.

    Something wrong with the search function.
    When you click the post count in the forum view to see how much each person has posted and then click on a number next to a person to find all their posts in that thread, you get to a blank screen instead of the search being performed.

    Yeah but I don't like using the wheel, its more comfortable to hold the middle mousebutton and scroll by moving my hand.

    Also this only happens when viewing threads.

    I've got to say Tosa - I love the new World Clock feature at the bottom.

    I dunno, I'm finding it intrusive and unnecessary. I preferred the old world times function which could be accessed from the menu bar. It also probably would look nicer if there were a larger distance between it and the bar at the bottom and, when applicable, the posting rules box.

    Some icons are still missing in Sword Dojo. We haven't got the albums icons in the album part, the throbber is missing from after we edit posts in simple view and the icons for going to the quote are sadly not there either.

    Couple of issues which I've had for a while though, the Links and Downloads manager is a bit of a chore to navigate for me at the moment. This is due to the category depth shown by the display (currently three). It would be much easier if it only showed a category depth of two or showed three in a more organised layout.

    The favourite smilies options probably should go under the "Settings and Options" part of the UserCP navigation strip rather than under "Your Profile" due to it, unlike those options there, not being part of the visable profile which other users can see.

    I notice the odd scrolling now too. It's normal in the Vanilla skin, but not in others. In only happens when viewing a topic. That makes a suspected template.

    The Posting rules box is always at the top, except in the Vanilla skin. But there's no WorldClock in that one. ?

    Something very weird that's probably related to the mouse scroll not working:
    If I am trying to select a bunch of text and don't do it very quickly, sometimes it just interrupts the selection. Is the page constantly being refreshed anywhere at regular intervals?

    Yup I cant sellect more than a little bit before it decides to stop letting me select. I dont know why the quick reply box is so slow to respond to keystrokes either, works fine in normal reply.

    All these problems occur no where else.

    (IE 7, Vista, The Guild Skin)

    It has the double arrow that means it can be hidden.

    I do have it hidden, but even then I have the bar there which, I must say, is a little on the thick size. It may be more bearable if it were a little more distanced, just a line, from the items around it.

    Thanks BTW, Tosa, for the work you've been doing so far and tolerating me - I'm probably becoming annoying now

    Update I've been having a heck of a time browsing on IE, It takes forever to load pages, I had to open this thread on Failfox because this thread did not load. It doesn't seem to show the page your trying to load till its fully loaded and freezes immediatly after you click a link till the page loads.

    Hello Rilder,

    I noticed, IE seems to have more trouble with topics than FF. That can be due to conflicting coding styles of HTML, perhaps even erratic coding (FF accepts it, IE doesn't/struggles).

    Have you tried the Vanilla skin or one of the IBulletins? They seem faster with IE.

    I'll try to restore the other styles to performing shape (there are some odd issues with it and non FF browsers). That may take some time.

    Would it be possible to get a "Reply to All" button for PMs? LotR players often send PMs to an entire group of people, and when replying we have to put all the names back into the recipient box. Sometimes people forget to do this and then the conversations get mixed up. A Reply to All option would be very helpful.

    Tried with The Guild, 56k, and RTW skins with no change.

    Hello Rilder,

    Default, Guild, RTW, Black, Sword Dojo, Sengoku, Daisy, Euro2008, Dial Up and 56K are more or less the same.

    The skin Vanilla (for this version) and the Ibulletin skins (~100% old) are different. Those can make a difference. One of the browsers I use only functions properly with IBulletin.
