Main site bug reporting
« on: May 26, 2008, 02:01:19 PM »
Felt that i wouldn't post in the accouncement topic, as i hope that will be more for general comments and, dare i say, criticisms of the new site.

Also hate to be the first to point out the bug, but nevermind. I 'spect it's an IE7 issue -- which we all love. Or something.

Anyways, the problem is that if you set the option to hide the right stats bar on the blog/news/tutorial posts then the content starts a little way down the page with a large chunk of white at the top.

It should be fixed now.

By the way, don't even bother reporting layout issues for Internet Explorer 6 and below. They will not be fixed (not by me at least).

That's because they are integrated.  You register here, and the same info works for the main site.

When I entered "XML" in the site search box (top right) it reported 4 hits and listed only 3 items (1 tutorial and 2 news items) ???
|baaGrid| easy data tables - and more
|baaChart| easy line, column and pie charts
|baaSelect| generate js and php code for dynamic linked dropdowns

Oops... It has something to do with how content is organized in the database and how the search algorithm indexes it. Anyways, it's fixed now.

That's strange. I'm using FF3, so it must be due to changes in the rendering engine. I'll take a look at the CSS later.

It's actually in the RC (release candidate) stage now, Crayon Violent. (And I've been using it since the very first beta, with very few significant problems.)

I was able to lock it up hard yesterday... with my beautiful coding... I wrote a crappy for loop in an AJAX app of mine and all of a sudden the browser was using 350 Mb of RAM and it locked up.  Opera handled it nicely, however.
