Auction window - DNForum - Domain Sales, Domain Forum, Domain Appraisals, Domain Registrars

**adoptabledomains** · 04-06-2003, 08:51 PM

When I view the auction, the list on the right does not fit in the window regardless of how large I make the window. This is in both XP and win98. It's just a little annoying, but could cause someone to bid on something wronly since often the first letter of the domain name is cut off.

Can this be fixed? Is it only me?

I have the same problem Mark. It is an annoyance.

For me, it fits after I widen the window, bit it would be nice if the default size was wider, and if there was a distinctive line, so people knew that it was resizable.

There is an invisible frame you can drag on the left hand side of the aution list that will correct the problem
Cheers!

The fact that it's invisible is why people can't find it. A border would help, in my opinion.

Good point. I was just letting you know that there is a work-around.

Yah Yah...sure whatever

I agree its a problem. The frame is invisible but if you run your mouse across it you'll see the cursor change to drag mode.

This is a minor problem compared to the auction failing

So far I'm not thoroughly impressed with the new servers must be NT based

Good Luck!

That's why I haven't been back..... I had trouble with that too and I had bid on some names I didn't even bid on trying to adjust that window to see the info. I didn't want those names but I went ahead and paid anyway, to keep peace. And those guys know who they are too, [ which you can't blame them really] who wanted their money and no matter what I said made no difference, so now when it's other guys who has got bitten it's a different story, huh? But one name I was not going to pay for $2,500.00 for a chinesesex.com name and I drew the line there. See I told you so! It wasn't me, it was the system, but some folks will never listen to the truth. I paid my dues and I paid my share but I don't have to get bitten but once, to figure out that some of those whiners owe me an appology. Thanks guys who have spoken up here and helped me out by stateing the issues that needed to be addressed about the bidding and the secret borders. I will check back in, to buy more snaps cause they really work, but to bid on names and end up paying for names I did not bid on is a issue I do not want to happen to me all over again.

Happy Trails to you all Pilgrims that know me and know I speak the truth.

The window frame is not even close to the bid buttons.

Ahhh ... we know you broke it, GD!

Just kiddin' ... and sorry for the inconvenience of y'day, THAT issue seems to be corrected now, and I'm now way down from my "caffeine high". LOL.
Thanks, see you, and keep up the good work!

**GiantDomains** · 04-11-2003, 05:09 PM

Don't worry, coolhost, if something's broke - it will be fixed - as you can see - many changes are happening right before your eyes - patience is a virtue - and the result will be worth the wait.

Well done! Thanks again, GD ... I promise to stick with chocolate milk (and not coffee) from now on. All changes look great!!

See you.
