1 edit | [easy] Move "Most people now reading" balloon popups
When mousing over the list of "Most people now reading" the balloon pop-ups do not show for the bottom items because the pop-up is configured to display below the line.
If the pop-ups were moved to be above the line, then all the balloon pop-ups would show properly. As it is, the bottom ones disappear behind the bottom of the window.
This fix would also stop the window from jumping when mousing down to the bottom of the list because that action would not force a scrollbar to appear when there isn't one already present.
Thanks.

| Makes sense. They just barely fit on the bottom of my monitor and the scroll bar appears. But you can't move your mouse over to the scroll bar to move the page down because the pop up closes.

Same thing happens in the forum view on all threads that are near the bottom of the viewable window.

I mouse to the bottom to try and get the popup completely, and my taskbar pops up.  |

To stop the window from "jumping" (which is more than a little annoying), you can use this (for Stylish in Firefox), at least on the postlist page (I've never seen the problem on other pages--they usually already have a scrollbar):

1 edit | Thanks for the tip. I just installed Stylish and your style to fix the jumping and it works great. I did not limit it to postlist because I see the problem on many pages including this one.

1 edit | Actually, I hide those links, except on postlist ('cause I'm not really lookin' for something else to check out when I'm going through forum posts--too many distractions):
(Someone else wrote this particular code--for the entire domain, don't remember who exactly, or when I started using it--been awhile. It hides the links in most places, except on postlist.)
Edit: Oh, yeah, it was Lanik: »userstyles.org/styles/3164
(shoulda remembered that :D) |

| Just for completeness :D, this one hides almost everything but the links at the bottom on postlist (making the page almost empty, with lots of room for the pop-ups to pop-up):
(You can just toggle it on/off in Stylish as needed/not needed.) |

2 edits | I'm pretty sure it's a belief that either (1) nothing should ever be unanimous (bah-humbug!) or (2) those pesky pop-ups really should be "obfuscated". The third option is just unthinkable... unspeakable... un-? |
