Maybe I'll try IE8 again.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22433752 Sat, 23 May 2009 15:53:38 EDT Re: [complaint] Replying to message change http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22409876 quote:

This happens because IE8 is not passing the session ID when clicking REPLY..... (Its splitting it off)

Example

Clicking that will produce what the OP states...

This is the complete link (With the session ID @ the end)

I dont like IE8 either (I dont even like 7)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22409876 Tue, 19 May 2009 07:36:52 EDT Thanks Justin and STAFF ! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Thanks-Justin-and-STAFF-22404866 said by justin:

well that was pretty simple fix it was just conservative reaction to a new major release. So IE[567] would allow the iframe but not others.
Thank you so very much to justin

and his entire STAFF for fixing this issue.
It made doing updates in the Security Updates sticky kinda difficult at times.

Again MUCHAS GRACIAS !!!!!

I have finally come, after many years of irritation, and trying to figure it out and fix it, to the conclusion that this problem is caused by the site gremlins. I no longer tear my hair out about it. I just wait and eventually it fixes itself. If it bothers me too much I use another computer where it is ok since sometimes I have the problem on all browsers at the same time but not on a virtual machine or another physical computer. The gremlins have won. ;) :D

Also, on 2 separate computers, at exactly the same time, the one with IE7 was fine and the one with IE8 wasn't.

Looks like the browser to me.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22375977 Tue, 12 May 2009 09:10:40 EDT Re: [complaint] Replying to message change http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22374929
I was seeing the problem about 5 days ago but this time it cleared up after about one or two days.

I know.

Still, the image I posted gives you a good idea of what I see any time I post a reply.

I just updated from IE7 to IE8. Could that make a difference?
I'm going to fire up another computer and see what happens.
Edit:
Now on a different computer:
Interesting on my WinXP laptop with IE7 I see the scroll window, I started this thread on a Vista laptop with IE8, but how could any of that posibly make a difference?
It's an IE8 thang.
I see the same centered reply in IE8 but not on another computer with 7.

I agree with other responders. It has not changed here.

It is probably IE8, or how the site scripting interacts with IE8. You could maybe try compatibility mode.
Also, check your scripting options match up to IE7.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22356573 Thu, 07 May 2009 22:03:02 EDT Re: [complaint] Replying to message change http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22356358

ANOTHER reason why I am on Linux instead of Windows...THEY don't know what's best for me, and I wish they'd stop trying to figure it out.

I found it useful to be able to scroll around to reference comments in other posts.

I assume the guys in charge consider this an improvement but I liked it the other way.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/complaint-Replying-to-message-change-22355688 Thu, 07 May 2009 18:50:06 EDT
