Haven't been here for about a week. Now there's an irritating page refresh each time a new page is loaded.

I use Firefox and tested on IE. Doesn't seem to happen with IE.

I know there used to be a similar Netscape bug (auto refresh and/or resizing), but why now all of a sudden? Never happened before ... [There is some Javascript code that can solve this]

Is it just me or only Firefox?

Seems fine with me as well, although i experienced a similar problem a couple of months ago which i re-install solved.

OK, thanks, will try a re-install of Firefox. I installed some new extensions recently, maybe there's a rogue one in there ...

Hmm, i actually use Opera now. So if you are fine paying a couple of $$ its a good choice. If not, you will have to contact Firefox as i dont know why its happening.

Sorry.

It seems like a dnforum problem. Every other website is fine.

Yeah me too. Reinstall didn't solve it.

dnForum is the only site with this issue (but I don't visit other forums that often). A quick look over at vbulletin.com showed several Firefox issues (although I couldn't pin this one down). Ah well ...

No way I'm paying for a browser, and one at that, that has a lot of issues of its own. And besides, I like Firefox 8)

Switch back to IE, it's all site compliant!
Hell no! Back to the 'Dark Side' - never!

IE cannot touch Firefox as far as performance goes and I have a ton of extensions that make my life a lot easier (Google PR, Alexa, Indexed pages, etc. etc.)

Guess I'll just have to put up with the auto refresh here ...

If i had the ultimatum i would rather just browse DN on IE and the rest on Firefox. I would think it very annoying to have auto refresh when you browse the forum a lot.
