My jumpy screen...

BabyRider · Post by **BabyRider** » Sun Feb 27, 2005 9:40 am

When I am here in the Garden, reading posts, and try to return to the top of the page, the screen jumps back to the bottom. I've tried scrolling with my mouse, using the bar on the right side, and the button at the bottom that says "top." Even when I click to a "last post", and start to scroll up, it will jump back to the bottom of the page. It only does it once, but it is literally every time I go to a new page. And it's only here in the Garden. Is it my computer or something here, or do I have ghosts? Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!!

I've experienced this a number of times. Two things I can think of. If the screen hasn't finished loading and you are going to the "last post" it loads to the bottom of the screen and keeps doing that until it is completed.

I've also had it happen that the screen starts scrolling down on it's own and won't be recovered unless I click to another screen on the toolbar ie) my OE Inbox then back to the browser again. I'm on a laptop and suspect that I touched the touchpad and it overrode the mouse.

The computer guys probably know better than you or I. I am interested to hear what it may be.

Hmm...I haven't noticed this behavior in Mozilla, Firefox, Camino or Safari (the browsers I use). Could perhaps be something Internet Explorer-specific.

Those of you experiencing problems: What web browsers do you use?

Internet Explorer (latest version - whatever that is)

I get it on firefox. It seem s that it takes a little while to load the program so I have learned to keep patient until it is fully loaded.
