Why can't you use the back arrow when reading posts?

Postby geegee » Tue Oct 28, 2008 12:25 pm

Once I select a post to read, why cannot I go back to the list of posts for that topic - the back arrow button on the top left of the windows screen does not seem to work any more. Now I have to re-enter the forum topic by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and using the GO button - which takes longer! Is this just my computer or is this a general problem????

No it's not just you GG, there is something not quite right at the moment. If you go to "Board Index" you just get a maintenance warning. I think they are working on the server or something. Watch this space :(

The 'Back' arrow works for me.

Yes now I come to try, the back-arrow works for me too. There still doesn't seem any way into the main forum other than this "back Door" method yet though, funny that :?

I think that might be almost classified as 'rude' Beachcomber....but I don't think it would stand-up in court :wink:

But not as rude as Russell Brand and Jonfon Woff! Image

Wot a pair of over-paid Oiks, there really is something wrong with a society that Idolizes and feeds off that sort of dross. Isn't it quiet in here :lol:

Hey, where is everybody? Couldn't agree more about the Ross,Brand thing . Guess they must be giving someone the odd 'backhander' :oops:

So they have been suspended. Can you imagine the conversation, "Look lads you've caused a bit of a furore this time so we'll say we've suspended you then when it's all died down we'll just carry on as before".

Actually Jonfon Woff has his uses. For example, if you are trying to explain to a foreigner what a slob is you can just tell him to watch BBC on a Friday night and look out for a fat bloke with long greasy hair who can't speak properly and that's a slob.

Just to keep within the posting rules perhaps I had better suggest that they could take a holiday in Andalucía in the meantime. Then we could find out where they are and go and spit on them. :mrgreen:

OK, not as interesting as the Brand/Ross debacle but my back button is now working intermittently!

I can´t get back via the back arrow :( I tried a little while ago and had to re-log into A.com :(

I quite like Russel Brand :oops: Ross I can take or mostly leave. I used to enjoy his Sat morning radio shows, but not listened to them for a few years now.

Its now back to kicking me out of the internet again all the time with a 'webpage expired' message. However, the forward button works so I can get straight back in - weird, used to work perfectly well, but glad I am not alone Olive!

Admin, can you check this out??? Do I need to reset my own computer somehow to be compatible with the new web settings?
