    I don't know how many of these errors are caused by imported "suites" of forum functions from the generic forum software -- in other words, I expect many of them are not "your fault"; you've inherited them.

    In any case, if you are able to clean them up, it should take care of a few gremlins and guard against random future bugs :)

    Note that the console also displays some CSS errors (although the W3C CSS validator is better).

    most of them are inherited. although some are typos...

    we are down to 3 errors on FF now. but unfortunately, they are not my code. how is the editor looking on your side? did the correction fixes it for you?

    i know that IE is still having problems. unfortunately, the error report is extremely useless.

    I use both IE and FireFox 1.5.0.1 and BC works just fine on both. In fact, BC is faster on FireFox.

    What's not working for you?

    Gollum, try this. i went home and logged into BC on my laptop. and i also ran into the same problem as you. and then i went into the Javascript log and browse around. after that, i cleared the log and tried again, and it magically fixes itself. see if that works for you. if so, then we can advertise that as a fix to the FF 1.5 + wysiwyg editor problem.

    Yes, this is what I've experienced too.
    Have you taken out "Today's Posts", which serves as a reference to threads that are still discussed. This also serves as a summary of some current discussions that may be of interest.

    On "Manage Attachments" ie a facility to enable the attachments of pics, images, there seems to be some changes. I used to reduce the original size of my pics to 40% 'resized' and had them nicely posted, but now when I did the same for my last two pics they came out to be rather small - about half the old size. :(

    What are the main changes that you've done?

    are you still seeing that? somehow the new software is clashing with the main menubar. i have removed the menubar for now. i will put it back once i figure out how to fix this problem...

    My computers that I use have sorted that problem now (or I should say Kwun has sorted that prolem, so my computer isn't affected!).

    Same Complaint. I use to go through the forums with the top left corner as Woofsta calls it. I hate having to go back to the beginning to go where i want.
