When ever I go to write a picture blog or really long post the scroll bar seems to start suffering with parkinsons! For some reason, no matter what you do with it, it keeps on returning to some sort of datum point it has set itself, so if you type below it, with each letter that is typed, it scrolls down to that letter but then instantly back to the datum point…and if you type fast like me, the screen just basically shakes between where you’re writing and where the scroll wants to position itself.
The net result of this is me getting ■■■■■■ off with the site, having to hold the scroll down after every few words to see if I’ve made any mistakes, and my recent blog having to be abandoned!
Yep, it seems to be some type of glitch. but it only happens occasionally and it’s beyond the control of anyone running the site, it’s a “higher-up” problem.
To do this open Trucknet in IE8, open the Tools Menu and select Compatibility View Settings,
The address for Trucknet should be showing in the box below Add This Website.
Click on the Add button to the right, click on the close button.

Job done, simples
Back in the days when I used IE8 for viewing this site, I tried that suggestion to no avail.
In my case, it reverted to the ‘old view’ when I next opened the browser.
I lost several posts just before hitting the ‘submit’ button, because the compatibility mode seemed to switch on and off at will.
BTW Col, that’s exactly what I tried to explain to you at the last TNUK do.
Now I have both Apple Safari and Firefox, this forum works just fine in both, so happy days!!

Ahh you expect me to remember that. I was inebreai,ineber…pished!
I remember that you asked for screenshots of the problem, so you possibly hadn’t had as many sherbets as you thought.
A screenshot would have been useless, because the problem was that the cursor jumped up and down within the writing window and wouldn’t have shown up in a screenshot as it was… hmmm… err… ‘off-screen’ at the time.

By the way your brekkie this year is on me. I haven’t forgotten that.
I blame Rikki for emptying my wallet though.

best you remortgage the house if youre paying for daves breakfast (tip of the day, ring the place you are eating and confirm there are no pies on the breakfast menu! it will save you a fortune)

Errr… I resemble that remark.
My tip of the day:
In order to have a light breakfast, just divide the normal amount onto two plates so that neither of them is heavy.
As Del said, Firefox also works for the TNUK site.
