Is there a problem with "Open Mike"? The front page does not look right. No new topics since 3 Feb 10. I sent one on 4 Feb 10.

I can't see any problems, but I can't see your topic either. The last reply was Quizman's reply to Chrisrail's chemist topic. You can try a test post and report back. I'll delete the test post later if necessary.

There is one from you on the 4th about Class 66s.

Did you know that you can look up all your posts via your 'Avitar' and profile?

I cannot see the topic sent on the 4th.

Still both there, have you tried listing your posts under your profile and seeing if both are there?

BarryM - are you using Internet Explorer?

I think it might be a browser problem - looking at the Open Mic screen in Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome and Safari the list of topics (most recent first) is:

More Class 66 locos on the move
Chemists
What am I to do
New Class 66s coming your way
All RAIB reports
DBAG
Apple and SimSig
Who, What and Where

Looking at the same page in IE8, I see

More Class 66 locos on the move
Chemists
What am I to do
Who, What and Where

The Latest Post Box beside 'What am I to do' is empty, but the row then appears to extend to the right and I can see three boxes containing 2479, 10 and Apple and SimSig last post by Sacro. There is no scroll bar so I can't go further to the right, but it may be that IE is rolling some rows together while the other browsers are reading the code differently.

Yes, I can see all my posts under my profile.
I am using IE8. Postal is seeing exactly what I see for IE.

I found the answer to this problem. In IE 8, run Simsig in "Compatibility View" . "Websites designed for older browsers will often look better and problems such as out-of-place menus, images or text will be corrected."

Hope this helps.

Odd that eh? All the other browsers have no problems except IE which needs a "compatibility mode" so it can so website other browsers have no problems dealing with.....Hmmmmm

Time for a new browser perhaps?

I've noticed a post on the Agora support website with almost exactly the same problem. However, in this case the compatibility mode was switched OFF for it to render correctly.

For anybody that IS seeing problems, please can you post a screenshot, along with the browser used and version, if not obvious from the screenshot.
