Is it coincidence that it's every eighth heading?

Or am I seeing a conspiracy....

I always thought it was just a function of the browsers window size, since it's not doing it on my netbook.

Haven't seen that, and I click around more than most I think

Hmm, might be something to do with my zoom settings, I dont have the sites viewed at 100%, I generally browse around 75% - Might be something about the CSS of SMF that doesn't like it lol

I've had it happen. Lost both dividing lines and, on a few occasions, all the non-text elements on the main forum index page. (On gHacks too come to think of it.)

It seemed to be a problem with something in my profile or Firefox's settings. But I'm a professional network administrator, so I opted for a simple "joott maneuver" which "cured" the problem each time. As a result, I never bothered to try to get to the absolute bottom of it. And it doesn't seem to be happening any more so it's hardly worth the time to me. (I just started sitting down with O'Reilly's Java programming books so I have much bigger headaches right now.)

@SB - some of us don't have that much free time on our hands... ;D

Gotta love that Joott Maneuver! :Thmbsup:

Obviously the answer is to get a screen that's 33% larger.

Hmm...so 47"?

I would probably still use the same zoom level though haha


;D

Ok. This is what I'm talking about. Closed FF. Then this weirdness just happened again when I opened FF:

This is probably unrelated, and I'm going to start a new thread...
but ever since the crazy firefox versions have come out, it's been a pain in the butt to keep things working smoothly.  I'm not saying it's FF, it just feels like it.

I had this discussion with a friend of mine the other day...he was asing why the website I made for him 3 weeks ago, now does not render properly in Firefox (Even though it did when it was launched) - I explained to him, that keeping up with Firefox changes was just not worth the effort seeing as they seem to change how everything is viewed on every new release...as a developer, that is VERY irritating and just seems to be a complete waste of time...

In the end, I told him to add a message on his site, that says it is best viewed in ANYTHING other than Firefox.

Agree. I find myself using Opera more and more.

Been using Opera for years and just cannot find a viable alternative for every-day use.

The ONLY thing I use Firefox for, is Netflix, purely because it won't actually let me use Opera for watching shows, and I am certainly not going to use IE for that task lol
