Yeah, every time we update the javascript on the websites Firefox seems to throw a fit. If you find part of the site suddently not working as it used to, then clear the cache (or alternatively, Ctl+F5 refresh first) and refresh the page. That usually kicks it in the butt. I hope this is something that they resolve in the next update, as I've reported it once a week for the last month

On a side note, I'm going to start using the Developer Journals forum on forums.wincustomize.com to occasionally list what has been resolved, updated or added to the forums. It's going to be a locked post and for information only. Since the forums has a version number at the bottom (did you know that was there?) I'll be tagging posts with the current version number so those of you interested can keep track.

Oh, forgot to mention... I have the emailing users function disabled at the moment. I wanted to get a new build up and that page is in the midst of an upgrade.

If I try to use autoscroll by middle clicking inside the thread area I only get side to side indicators which allow me to "wiggle" the posts by about 3 pixels. Clicking outside the thread area on the page background to the right autoscroll functions fine.

I'm sorry but that's browser specific behavior, nothing we can control from our end

I have always and still can autoscroll inside a thread regardless of browser or version. The settings are for your specific mouse.
Check Control Panel ...Mouse and Wheel tab.

Some mice have their own software that you install on a cd, if thats the case you may need to check that.

I know how to set the autoscroll. This problem is specific to the wincustomize forums. It works correctly in the stardock forums, the totalgaming forums, the joeuser forums, etc, etc, etc...
The only place I have this problem is forums.wincustomize.com
Like I said if I move the cursor off the thread onto the page bg and middle click it functions correctly. It is only in the wincustomize forum thread background area that it doesn't work.

Also, mouse gestures do not work inside the thread area, but function correctly if I move off the thread area and perform them on the page bg. They use the right button btw, not the wheel button.

correction: only the mouse gestures that involve scrolling do not function in the thread area. "Scroll to Top" "Scroll to Bottom" Other gestures still work.

I keep asking about this, but no-one is answering. Somtimes when you click on 'View all recent posts' you only get the last ten showing. Next page takes you to the next page, so the posts between ten and 'next page' are missing:-

It would be nice to know if someone is looking into this.

I still get that too Fuzzy, it is annoying going to the next page and losing ~4 hours worth of new posts.

I've noticed this happens normally after I "backup" out of the previous thread instead of clicking the "Home" or "View all recent" links and then choose recent form the "home" page. Seems like it only shows the "cached list" from the earlier page visit.

When using the WinCustomize Browser I saw that the last post information was borked. It only happened on page six of seven, if that helps any. I'm linking to the actual SS of the browser. WCB version 2.00c[b].003
