Error In the Industrial Layout
 

Now i know this fault is specific to the Industrial layout because i tested the native one and it works. At the bottom of every forum, the go buttons, where you decide how old the threads that appear there are, is not working.......

Yeah, its been mentioned before, when Alcar comes back he will fix it... or did he fix it already?

Yes! I mentioned it before!

Okay, okay I'll look into it! I was expecting vBulletin 3 to be here already, but it isn't (well it is, but it is in Beta stage so it has lots of bugs).

Haha, it wasn't even a Javascript error! For some reason the template had an extra end form tag that stopped the use of the go button.

Alcar...

I mentioned this months ago, and as a quick fix, changed the default thred display in my User CP.
Has the problem been fixed yet???

I have noticed that when I click the little thing that says "go to last unread post" it doesn't send me there, it sends me to the end of the thread, or someplace that seems random.

I don't know if this can be fixed but I though I'd mention it. i might not know what I'm talking about.

Yes, sometimes that button doesn't do anything but load the thread at the appropriate page.

Adder, it should be fixed by now.

TheKhanzumer, it should work. However, if the first unread post is close to the bottom the browser can't scroll any further down, therefore it stops as far down as it can.

That's HTML, not vBulletin.

Alcar...

Such is the problem with PHP. The script looks much more messy than html without a designated editor.

My personal thoughts on this, are that CSS, java, and HTML backbone are all really powerful scripting languages, anything more and the website becomes pointlessly complex from then on in. XML, PHP, PERL, CGI, SQL all script themselves out in a very non-user freindly manner. Making notepad-esque adjustments near impossible. (Which is a pain because that is my preferred means of updating my websites.)

To sum up, cascading style sheets rule, use them wherever you can, that way you are able to omit other script which has the potential to become confusing later on. And for links, avoid complex scripting wherever possible, unless you need redirect scripts, or target="frame" scripting.

Oh yes I agree that vBulletin 2 is very poorly scripted. The developers themselves have said that, time after time again. vBulletin 3 is properly put together, and follows their own scripting rules.

Alcar...

vB 2 is pants. vB 3 isn't much of an improvement as far as looks go, but runs better. I'll post my report for the beta test when I am done, if I can remember.
