Bad page links on a DV thread

[az]

Opera has less bugs, 7.20 is way faster than anything I've used yet, and it displays all pages I visit without flaws

But you're right, I'm kind of a zealot

just try 7.20 when the final is out

Mozilla Firebird does the same to me. No problems at all - and it's free (and seems currently even smaller than Opera)....

Can you open 232 windows within seconds, with the browser not even getting slow?

(See my thread "which Opera 7 skin do you use?" in The Lounge)

Will you folks take your tired old browser war someplace else?!

[az]

It's not war, it's love

But I'll try and stop pestering you

xortam, the fix is not to allow control codes in the thread title in this case '/'. while with a lot of digging around I can probably stop and or modify vBB's new thread script to strip and/or stop users posting a title with certain combinations it IS a bug with IE.
(It already has that basic functionality and follows the standards - pity IE doesn't).

Yes it is a bug, yes it should be fixed, yes I have about a 1000 other bugs and or impending problems on my list that I need to get to first.

There is a new version of vBB due out/out that I need to swap over too, and every hack/fix I have installed needs to be migrated. including our whole front page system.

Remind me again after you see the vBB version number change from 2.x.x to 3.x.x

I am sorry and I feel your pain as I usually browse the forums in IE myself, but right now apart from the impending deadline with a job that pays my rent there are other bigger things with murc that I'll have to deal with real soon.

Thanks Dan ... don't sweat it. I just wasn't sure if you were implying that Brian had fixed the thread. I'm certainly not throwing a tantrum that every bug has to be immediately fixed. It turns out it was worthwhile bringing it to your attention as it is indeed a problem with the site (IE compatibility problem). Thanks for looking into it. I found a work around for it early on so its not that big a pain.

No sweat, just got me prior to coffee
All vbb's suffer this fate as far as I know.

see if its sorted in a later version of vBB - if not I'll see what I can tweak.
