i don't know what 'double rhs scrollbars' are? which link? or all the site? what browser?... i need more info to fix it.

cool.

if you go to 'Forest' working group (underneath it says 'this one is private') then on the right hand side there are two scroll bars, this sometimes leads to annoying use...

in fact just on the front bb page there are two. to view everything, you need to use both bars..

There is some trouble with IFRAMES and getting stuck in them when a link should break you out. I'll try to remember what I've just done next time I get one.

One problem I get often is when I go to the Administrator page from the Forum index. The JavaScript which alters the height of the Admin IFRAME doesn't quite work.

Code: Select all

function iFrameHeight() {
  var h = 0;
  if ( !document.all ) {
    h = document.getElementById('blockrandom').contentDocument.height;
    document.getElementById('blockrandom').style.height = h + 60 + 'px';
  } else if( document.all ) {
    h = document.frames('blockrandom').document.body.scrollHeight;
    document.all.blockrandom.style.height = h + 20 + 'px';
  }
}

In Firefox 1.5 (Linux), the h variable in the !document.all branch must get set to 0, and the Admin IFRAME then is only 60px heigh, which isn't very.
