No more refreshing Forum Homepage

[Andem]

Why bother reloading the Forum Homepage now that we have some nifty AJAX up and running? If you're a registered member, your latest topics scroll should automatically update every 15 seconds now without you having the reload the main page.

Please be reminded that Internet Explorer 6 is not supported and never will be. If you want to take advantage of this cool feature, please upgrade your IE or get FireFox.

Whats with all the newspaper icons down the left side of the new topics section.? The number of posts in the topic seemed more informative.

does the ajax hurt the eyes?

That still exists.. Just now each news story lists the number of comments under the brief excerpt.

Anyone else getting the

Firefox prevented the page from automatically from reloading

on the main page message every time they access ?

If so how do you resolve this as I have tried to "Allow" and yet it keeps coming back.. I have even marked the site as an open site and it keeps doing it..

Do this:

Go to "Tools" for Firefox.
Click Options.
Click Advanced.
Click General.
3rd line down "Warn me when web site tries to reload or redirect page"
UNCLICK this.
Click OK

If that's the only solution I am not sure that is the best and worthwhile. This option is to stop "Phishing" from happening and is a good security option that should not be overwritten that easily..

This is a major reason I moved to Firefox in the first place..

Really? If you config Windows firewall properly that's all you need.

What kind of stuff can a phisher get anyway? Can they get pics off my harddrive? Can they see stuff I enter on encrypted sites? I'll say with confidence(maybe stupidity)that they can't get anything valuable, not unless your throwing your information around unscrupulously.

Besides, I had to clear that FF option to make that warning go away and I turned out okay...

You could always switch back to Windows Internet Explorer 8 for its phishing filter.

Ew gross! IE 8?

Stick with FF.

If this happens periodically, I think I've got this hammered out. As of now, there is no longer a meta refresh and the active topics should stay fresh automatically.

This only happened on the home page, or?
