OK, this update with the frames and whatnot is a huge step down...

I don't see what's changed now. This site has pretty much always enforced frames Smiley

I also don't really understand why people dislike frames. Personally, I find it much more convenient to have links at a fixed location, always within easy reach, rather than having to scroll to the top/bottom of the page to find them. A common argument seems to be that you can't bookmark pages - that's not true (eg. "Bookmark This Frame" in Firefox).

I run my browser at less than 1024x768, and I find that there is not enough width left over from the frames for the forum. I can also tell you that if you drop down to 800x600, the box to enter your email address vanishes.

I described my problem (I'd call it a bug). It's fixed by accessing the forum with http://www.un4seen.com/forum directly (http://un4seen.com/forum does NOT work). Any other URL makes Firefox redirect subsequent "open in new window/tab" links back home to the starting page.

Before the update, I always opened this site with http://un4seen.com/forum/?board=2 (it's at the top of my autocomplete list after typing "un"). That's a no-no now.

As for the general frames thing, if I go to http://www.un4seen.com , Firefox ALWAYS opens the last thread/site section I was in, not the starting page. I don't know if that's a Firefox problem, but it almost only happens on this site, so I'm suspecting there's some bad coding somewhere (don't shoot me!).

Sure, it's not a big deal, but it is somewhat of a nuisance.

It sounds like you may have an old file cached (hence it's ok if you use another sub-domain). Have you tried clearing your browser's cache?

That's so that you can press refresh to refresh the current page, otherwise it'd go back to the "welcome" page each time you did that. It should reset each session, eg. after closing all Firefox windows.

Well something is broken now because typing http://www.un4seen.com/forum/ now takes me to the Welcome page even if I left the site by clicking a bookmark while still viewing a thread.

Has that always happened, or did it just start at the time of the forum update? If the latter, it could be the cache again. Have you tried clearing your browser's cache?

Hasn't happened before, and doesn't now. I noticed it on my work comp today, I'll test again tomorrow.

raina@tomorrow: Doesn't happen again.

I've now added a little button (the 3 white arrows) to toggle the menu frame.

Nice, although the link block that appears does look a little out-of-place. Still nice.

Could you re-do the spell checker? The pop up-windows is to small for what it's displaying (resulting in scrollbars) and it's not resizeable.

It does, but it gives you a lot of forum back for it Grin.

A thought about the new link block: how about making it 'sticky' (so if you hide the left frame it stays hidden if you close and reopen IE or whatever)?

Ok, the limit has been increased to 1MB. The attachment option is located under the "Additional Options" bit.

Version "1.1 final" of the forum software has just been released, so there'll probably be some downtime as I switch over to that at some point in the next few days. Maybe even today, if I can be bothered Grin
