Sliding bar (page scroll) appears in top left hand corner

[binaryman]

I use Firefox1.5.3 on my Imac and on this Namepros forum I always get a little blue page scroll sliderbar in the top left hand corner of the thread box. It is very annoying as it blocks out parts of the text in a message. I dont have this problem on any other sites I visit..only here. When I use SAFARI or Internet Explorer to visit Namepros I also dont have this problem. It seems it is only on this site and with Firefox that this problem occurs. Any ideas on this and/or solutions?
Thank you
Fred

I've never seen the site on a Mac. Is there anything I can modify to fix this?

Here is what it looks like.

Ah, that's the same problem Grrilla reported. Its something residual from the Smilies box on the reply page, but I've not been able to identify anything usual about the code to make that happen on Macs.

Any ideas out there?

you might want to try Noia 2.0 (eXtreme) it's a skin add on for Firefox 1.5 - 1.6
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/72/

it was said to fix scrollbar problems on firefox's default skin.

I have done so and it solves nothing.

i have another approach:
what i was trying to do is suggest a different scrollbar anything but your current scrollbar to avoid it.
here are some scrollbar skin add ons for firefox see if anyone of them can solve it.

while it gives me some time to research about it.

RJ - Sorry, kindof off topic, but did you happen to delete my posts in this thread or something? :S Or did they disappear?

I'll see what I can do tommorrow, I'll be on a MAC for about 2 hours at school, might be able to see what code makes a difference, just in html on the local computer I mean.

All the best,
Rhett.

Nope, looks like binaryman posted this issue twice,

it this issue resolved?
might need to take another action on it it's not the scrollbar?

namepros doesnt look right in osx/firefox

im not sure if this has been brought up before but i can barely read anything here at np because of some inline frame issue. i have attached a screenshot. it looks the same on every page. i have to view the printable version.

 

[jonasholmstrom]

I have the same problem w/ Firefox/OSX

 

[binaryman]

Problem persists

 

[binaryman]

Yes I did make 2 postings about this already. Have a look a few postings back. Plus I added a screenshot of the problem. Lots of suggestions but no cure. Sent report to Firefox as well but heard nothing back from them.

 

[RJ]

Can someone who is experiencing this problem on a Mac confirm where the scrollbar originates from? Is it the smilie box on the new reply or new post page?

I don't have access to an affected machine, so I need some help identifying what is causing this.

 

[oreamnos]

i think i solved this problem. check out this thread:
