Forum quirks

I haven't been hanging around here lately, so maybe this is old news -- let me know the thread to read if it is.

I look at this forum message list and see one I want to read. I open it and go read for a while. I then click the 'back to Vegas - video' link...

When I get there, the display is messed up. The subject field for the messages is narrow, like the early teething problems (April?) with subjects taking multiple lines. I click refresh on my browser and it gets back to the way I like it.

It's not just me seeing this, is it? Another fix that broke working things?

**Update
Hmmm... very odd...

I edited my message just to correct the syntax of the "back to...' link, and since that, I'm not seeing the problem I was before. ??Huh??

I assume it may come back, but now it's gone. Ask and you shall receive?

**Update 2

There is still something doing it -- I just don't understand exactly how it happens.

Arrghh...

Most frequently happens if I open a new message (not read before) and then come back to the main list -- but not always. I presume there is some pattern, but I sure can't identify it yet.

I only noticed this for the first time yesterday. I have been away from the forum for the last 3 weeks but prior to that I never noticed the problem.

Edit: Netscape 7.2

I've seen this also.

Just stared a day to ago for me too. Press refresh fixes it. I'm using Firefox also. (is there any other brower?) ;-)

Yea, I get it to. Don't know what the deal is but hitting refresh usually seems to straighten it out.
