 sorry about that: the, um, dwickies are back. One developer's code clashed with another developer's code and the dwickies suffered the fallout All hail the Mighty Dwickies! Thanks Sean

 The fix I had last time lasted about a week. So been struggling with current page for a long while now but today it seems fixed again both on IE and Firefox. Looks as though the problem was the down arrow for the smilies. Hope this fix lasts

 Congratulations on the upgrade. I like all the changes except the 'hover over previous' function, which to me at least is never helpful and often a nuisance when I trigger it by accident and it obscures something I want to look at. Could the triggering of this panel at least be made more accurate, say only when the cursor hovers ove the actual text? Frum, I agree; I'll add that to the list
This was back in January. How is the list going?

...obvously not as important or as much a priority as the very popular (average - 1 message per day) 'Welcome to the Lakeland 100 Section" which was installed seemingly overnight.

Glyn, Cammy sorry if you're disappointed, but please bear in mind the trusim that one can't please everyone all the time. I can't speak for Jon, who controls the site, but I guess that the Lakeland folder took him about 60 seconds of admin time to set up. On the other hand, the hoverover function would require tech time, and more significantly, has been requested by one user so far, out of about 4000 active registered users per month. I I don't know what those other people think about the hoverover, for a start, but i do know what they think about better forum search (lots of them want it), a routes-sharing system (ditto), and things that just break on the site and need fixing urgently - and those are the main things we're working on. I'm not saying that your request wouldn't make a positive difference to a majority of those people - it might - or that things requested by just a handful of people don't ever get done ; but we have to have some way of deciding what gets done first, and it's not just first come first served, alas.

Hi Magic Technical People
Just trying out the new Google Chrome browser, and the OM dialogue box is showing the 'old' options immediately above the box you type in - the 'bold, italics, underline, link, image' rather than the interesting new things with spell-checker, insert photo and / or youtube video, and the wonderfully exciting bullet point list!
Is this something you're working on resolving please?

 Oh, and while you're at it, could you stop long URL links knackering the page width, rendering pages unredable without lots of tedious scrolling. Like this one, for instance. I note that long URLs with potential break characters (e.g. '&' or '%') don't cause this trouble, but wrap nicely. An auto meta-link inserter, perhaps, if the URL is beyond 128 chars or some other suitable length?

> Is this something you're working on resolving please? Not sure why OM should have to fix 'problems' with their website to keep up with a beta-release, immature browser. Sounds like a problem for google to fix, to me... OM seems to work fine under IE and Firefox.

 Since this floated back to the top of the Recent Posts I now know why I can't quote... I use Safari!
What I wonder is why... it is the most compliant browser (with STANDARDS not Microsoft not-so-Standards) to the best of my knowledge and it's rendering engine is second to none.
But the boards also don't seem to run on phpBB or any of the other usual candidates, so manual quoting by typing tags doesn't work either.
Down with WYSIWYG, Up with writing proper code!

 Can't access my inbox - says it has a message but when I click "Inbox" it asks me to log in. Depsite doing this again and again the request to log in persists. Using latest Firefox and IE7 - neither work.

 I'll ask tech to have a look at it.
