    One is the actual relationships forum, the other is the redirect in health to the relationships forum. Seems to only be Idle who is affected though.

    Just a small mistake, it's not much of a problem but I'll flag it up to be fixed :yes:

    Just giving you guys a heads up that we're hoping to do maintenance work this evening just midnight. You should still be able to use the site, but might experience some slow down in performance etc.

    You can find out more here: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/anno...php?f=69&a=875

    Please let other people know if you're and they are around after midnight tonight

    The width of the website sometimes becomes bigger than my screen, so I get a side-scroller bar. It happens in the Back Room, for example.

    What size screen are you using? I'll go take a look in the backroom...was the problem on the forum pages or within a thread? If a thread, which one?

    I haven't noticed any particular pattern, but it has happened on threads as well, can't think of any in particular and it doesn't happen often. 15" screen at 1440 by 990.

    Your screen res. is certainly well beyond the minimum we try to get pages to work for, so that isn't an issue.

    If it happens again can you please try and get a screen shot of the full page and let me know the URL.


    The problem could be one of many things, like dodgy useful resources code, a large image in a signature or post or something else...I've not seen anything yet from looking in the backroom.


    EDIT: not sure if it was the cause of your problems, but the useful resources code was missing a closing div tag. Added that in now. I guess we'll not know if this fixed the problem, but we might be able to assume it has if we don't see it again

    I've got a screenshot. It's still happening in the Backroom and it's happened in "Only for smart people- IQ style logical questions."

    Ah yes, I've noticed that sometimes. It seems to happen whenever the mod nav bar (at the top of the page) gets too long to fit inside its containing DIV.

    Code tags no longer insert spaces after a certain number of letters (unsure since when). Kinda good kinda bad. Is this an intentional change?

    Why on only some threads/places, though?

    I mean, I can go from a thread with normal width to the Back Room and it widens out, with the mod bar being the problem?

    What it should do is not insert spaces, but the div for the code tag should have a maximum width (either fixed or screen size - a certain number of pixels), so that scroll bar on the bottom works.
