I'm not sure if this is just my computer or anything to do with the new server thing or not, but for the last several days after I read a thread I click the back button like I always have done, instead of going back it just takes me back to the top of the thread I just read. I have to click the back button a second time to actually go back. This forum is the only place that this does this.

Hi Cherbear:

What browser do you use? I use Firefox and don't have the same problem. "Back" works fine for me.

This is probably a function of your browser. Sometimes when you click a link that scrolls you to a certain page of a page (top or bottom, usually) what you described will happen.

Mine started doing that also lately. Not sure why, perhaps something screwy in Internet Explorer. :(

I just use internet explorer. I haven't changed anything or did anything differently. It just started this past week. Hopefully, I can figure it out.

I had the same prob on my Ipad for awhile. I don't even use the back button anymore. I just click back to Today's Post's or click my history button and scroll to find where I was.

For the past couple of days I've been having the same problem. I use Firefox. I'll hit the "back" button and nothing happens. I get "done" at the bottom of my screen. I have to hit it again three or four times in order to get back to my previous screen.

It seems to act up most when there are lots of pictures in the thread.

Hi Jason:

Won't you take a few moments and start a new thread in the "introductions" section and tell us a bit about yourself?

In my case, I fixed it by switching from Firefox to GOOGLEChrome. I like it much better!

Thanks emysemys. I think I posted in the intro forum but I believe my posts are still moderated. I also switched to CHROME.
