I'm noticing a lot of posts which only show up as the EMAIL button with an arrow "-->". The other buttons are also screwed up, and sometimes several posts in a row are messed up.
The "And you think a V8 swap is special" thread is a great example. I *think* it only happens if the poster has their email address "public", so the email button shows up at the bottom. Note, this may only appear on Firefox. It seems to work OK in IE. |

I noticed it too. For an example, here is a thread that has it bad.
About 3/4 the way down the first page, where Z posted after Britt it starts getting wacky. I saw Britt's post, and though he was using Z's signature photo... then realized the messages were almost overlapping. Looks to me like there is a closing html tag missing. |

I have no choice on my Unix box to run what I've got now (1.0.7), which has the problem. I just upgraded to 1.5.0.1 on Windows and I'm still seeing the problem. Look at Mueller's post in this thread: V8 thread I'm still seeing the problem. The post body has the email button, and the Top and Quote and "Reply buttons show up in the right pane. No bottom pane is shown. |

I'm noticing this too. I didn't say anything because I thought it was happening to everyone and would be obvious. It's not related to the poster's active buttons or whatnot, because I saw it had happened to one of my posts, but not others. On my post that it did happen on, the text of my post was missing, and my signature was appearing as the post, and in bold.
One other strangeness I noticed was that a thread (the one about the ebay isetta) was bumped to the first page, but the most recent post was in 2005. I'm not complaining though, just trying to provide helpful troubleshooting info. I'm just glad we're back online! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Thanks for the help in trouble shooting it. If someone can load a messed up page, view the HTML code and decipher what is missing it will help figure out the problem and save me from having to do that.

Alright. Here's my input. Everone close their eyes.
1. My loading is WAY slower. And I'm sporting a T3 connection. 2. Some of the sigs in back posts really mess up the page. I had to change the skin to "Invision origanl" or whatever the low one is, to view them correctly. 3. There is a scroll bar for all the readily available smilies. That has to go. I spend enough time looking for the right smily for my mood as it is. 4. The club banner isn't flying at the top of the page. I sure hope the new prog supports that... 5. The colors and the format are really a downgrade. Before, it was really obvious what posts youve read and what you haven't and what posts are important. Now, it's like learnig spanish. You can understand it if you squint really hard at the guy speaking it. <--- Can Andy download more skins from the invision site? We've got three now, and they're all the same crappy blue. |

More data: it's not user specific. In the thread "Stuck Injector", some of yarin's posts are messed up, some aren't.

OK, it looks like there are more "open HTML comment" than there are "close HTML comment". In the yarin post in the Stuck Injector thread, it's a comment after a div of class postcolor id post-656820. It looks like someting in the QuoteBegin block there is odd, and it doesn't see the end comment just after the timestamp. Perhaps the string QuoteBegin DNHunt ... is confusing things?
Perhaps the problem is something in the quoted post? In any case, it's treating most of the rest of the post as an HTML comment (in Firefox), and the arrow we see after the Email button is the close comment that's not working. |

I'm getting closer to the "email -->" bug. It looks like it has something to do with quoting.... still working....building identical good and bad post code samples and doing diffs on them |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) That's a "fast." Remember the Volkswagen commercials? Sometimes my fast and my girlfriend don't get along? Bet ya didn't know that they're bunnies. I didn't until recently. Almost takes the cool outa the commercial. Except that I think that bunny would choke me to death if I said so. I don't get a "post confirmed, please wait while we redirect you" page after hitting "post." Just a blank page and then I have to browse back to where ever I wanted to be. |

A little off topic, but do we need seperate topics for different bugs/problems/omissions???
Are the BLOGS all gone now or have they not yet been included? Or haven't I found them yet? |
