DonationCoder.com on an iPad is Kinda Weird

(1/3) > >>

J-Mac:
Just one more reason - of several - to dislike my iPad: DonationCoder.com is difficult to read on it. Unlike any other forum I read, this one is tough to scroll. It seems like each individual post is in its own frame or something. When you put your finger on the page to scroll up or down, the text of the specific post you are touching moves slightly up or down - maybe 1/16" - but the page itself will not scroll. To get the page to scroll I must swipe the screen at the vertical scroll bar or in that thin area between the scroll bar and the posts.

Anyone else using an iPad? Can you confirm this behavior? (For me it occurs on the native Safari browser as well as Opera Mini and the Dolphin browser.)

have you tried accessing the mobile version of the forum?

just add wap, wap2, or imode into your url, like follows:


* https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?wap
* https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?wap2
* https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?imode

The one drawback is it doesn't show images.. but it should be much faster that way.
Might be nice to add a version that did show images but forced them all to show as thumbnails.

I haven't experienced any quirky behavior WRT scrolling on the 1st gen iPad I use. I've set Atomic as my default browser but tried it with Safari and got the same result - scrolling works like it should in both portrait & landscape modes.

Sometimes the posts show up with the smileys all mixed up, the browser even pulls much larger smileys (which aren't even accessible via the 'more' link) from somewhere and puts them in random places. It's bizarre and occurs randomly. ;D

No problems here on iPad1... Not updated the OS yet though.
