What about query strings?
www.bar.com?a=1&b=2&...
Is the 'Post a reply' bit meant to underline on a mouseover?
What post 'Post a reply' ? I don't see that happening.
I'm using IE
I'm using Fox. The post a reply bit right above where you post a reply =]
It doesn't underline for me.
And hark at you "I'm using 'Fox"
"Yeah man, I went to that new 'urant in town, yeah it was 'cellent, yeah, yeah I know, I'm a bit of a 'ckhead"

I'm using Firefox (Grim, you cunt) and it underlines for me.
What the hell is wrong with calling it Fox?
No-one had a problem with brock talking about his 'Mobile Phone' in the Crazy Frog tread...
I like to use 'fire', but i'm at work and a slave to Microsoft.
What happened to my General Erection thread? (Can't remember exactly what it was called, but it might have been 'Poll, anyone?) Was it removed by some evil administrator, or is it just not visible?

I use 'F' on Microsoft, Vic. It's not a Mac thing.
WH: It was flushed. Like all things shit.
I'd like to use 'the ox' at work, but I don't think they'd be that happy if I went around installing new browsers on their computers.
Brock, if it was flushed, like all things shit, why are
you still here?

Because I, oh person that would challenge the further reaches of carbon dating, am shit-
hot.
Big difference, and so I indeed rock.
Sometimes a flush is better than a full house.
...
Rock? Carbon dating? Sounds to be like Brock's gone a bit sedimentary in his old age.
"Yeah, man, I used to be
igneous. Proper igneous. Now look at me."

You're a smoking turd. Is that the same thing?
Surely you mean smoking -a- turd?

No, Brock smokes cocks.
weird - post a reply doesn't underline for me

[edit] should be fixed now. can a 'ireox' user confirm?

Brock, around 25th May 2005:
Yeah, it's fixed on '..o.'

'Post a reply doesn't underline' what?
while we're tweaking minor formatting bits --
is it possible to lose the forced-blank-line prepended and appended to every <blockquote>?
it just sucks space without adding any real readability or niftiness. if the poster wants blank indented/lined space they can still add it via the miracle of the Return Key.

Is the Return key the Enter key? And what's the history behind that name ;l
carriage return on typewriters, innit
the reason for the extra space is because css says that horizontal scroll bars take up vertical space within the div, inclduing padding, and don't extend the height of the div. this means that when we get horizontal scrollbars, we also get vertical ones (which allow you to scroll by 1 line) unless we have vertical padding.
fucking browsers :(

make your own.
(ok so return I get, but why enter?)

" carriage return on typewriters, innit"
genius that cal is
calcss- bleah
robo- harks back to the olden days of early computing, when a special key was used to push the typing into a command buffer instead of adding formatting characters (carriage-return plus line-break) to a data(text) buffer. you literally Entered what you typed for processing.
you'll see Excel still distinguishes between the keys
What happens to the topics once they fall off the screen?

No one knows!!1111
at the moment, they are gone from view. at some point i'll build an archive index

WarHead, around June 2005:
See, even
he doesn't know.
You can still get to the old ones if you know the topic number.
example:
Pedantry starts here
I wonder if I can/should *bump* a topic that
fell off of the bottom.

WarHead, around June 2005:
A Topic fell off your bottom?
I would imagine it's harder to hold on to than a Bounty on Kofi Ananananan's head.

i get round to things in the end. blockquotes now have no top/bottom padding.

Holy crap, it's true.
*Warhead alerts the media.*
oo! nice one. but didn't you say it was part of the Standard? how'd you chop it out?
oh that's interesting. the top/bottom padding just reappeared
It did?
this is a test?
A nickel ain't work a dime anymore.
style sheet caching i suspect
no, something different.
it went from old (grr) to new (cal got it back to intended behaviour! roxxor!!!) to re-old {eh or maybe bugger} aka {Oh, It's Back The Way It Was}.
key point: several people, from WAY different locations/ISPs, saw the same thing: 1/ went proper!!) 2/ reverted::(not just repeated the same hence implying caching}
it really is most odd, if you, cal, made NO changes. implies joint ISP frigging around at a low level.
but, i can't see a commercially-justifiable reason for it.
Ladies and Gentlemen. My name is Doctor Lucid, and I have a reputation for posting things on this message board that do not make sense. I think you are all displaying a lack of good judgement.

You are Dr Lucid, here is my copy of The Sunday Sport, I claim a year's free subscription to Razzle.
You set fire to Rick's bedroom? I think that's a really selfish thing to do Vyvyan. I was hiding in there, you could have given me away!
Bastards at the Sport didn't know a good Doctor when they saw one.
I hate rejection letters.
