Per my previous post, I'm seeing an issue with Quick Reply and my latest installs of Safari V3.2 and Firefox 3. I use IE 7 and the aforementioned browsers to check sites that I develop. I just noticed Quick Reply does not display in Safari and Firefox. I have all Javascript options enabled in both. I know the Quick Reply feature uses inc_code.js so I'm guessing it's Java related. Also, it's the same whether I'm viewing Snitz forums here or my own forums. Any ideas?<

works fine here in FF/Safari and Chrome.

quick reply does not use any javascript. there is obviously something screwy with your FF and Safari setups.<

I'm starting to wonder if you're not confusing "Quick Reply" with something else... all the quick reply is is the little box at the bottom of the topic - no link, no JavaScript (which is NOT the same as Java, don't use those for interchangeable terms), nothing more than an HTML table and an HTML form. That's why were a little puzzled at these issues.<

Yes, the Quick Reply table at the very bottom that allows you to post to a topic without using the "Reply To Topic" link on top.

Both my Safari and Firefox are default installs except for allowing Java and Javascript. Firefox shows the following 4 errors on your forum:

Warning: Expected color but found '#'. Error in parsing value for property 'color'. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=68230
Line: 49


Warning: Expected color but found '#'. Error in parsing value for property 'background-color'. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=68230
Line: 49


Warning: Expected color but found '#'. Expected color but found '#'. Expected end of value for property but found '#'. Error in parsing value for property 'border'. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=68230
Line: 49


Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'font'. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=68230
Line: 49


Your line 49:

.scrollcode {white-space:pre; height:200; width:650; overflow:scroll; color:##191970; backgroud-color:##DCDCDC; border : 1px solid ##000000; font : 9pt #Verdana, Arial, Helvetica;}

Why the double pound signs? Where is "scrollcode" used? By any chance is it in the Quick Reply table? I copied your source code, dropped it in Dreamweaver, and previewed in all 3 browsers and got the very same thing (QR table not displaying on Safari and Firefox).

The only code I see directly before the QR table (in source code view) is this:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="inc_code.js"></script>

Here's my QR code from topic.asp:
	if strShowQuickReply = "1" and strDBNTUserName <> "" and ((Cat_Status = 1) and (Forum_Status = 1) and (Topic_Status = 1)) and ArchiveView = "" then
		call QuickReply()
	end if

Would it help to see my QR Subroutine?<

the double # are appearing because you must have put them in your colour values.

scrollcode is not part of the default Snitz, so perhaps you have added a mod incorrectly which is causing your issue.<

Huwr, you are not understanding me. The double '#' are not in my forums' css, they are in yours, here at snitz.com. And with my browsers, I cannot see your QR tables, as well as my own.<

I see the double ## in the .scrollcode entry too, however that has nothing to do with the Quick Reply. All the errors you posted are CSS errors, not JavaScript errors - and the only Java to be found is in my cup. That bit of CSS is used to display scrollcode tags, but unless you installed those yourself, they are not a part of a default install. Either way, it has nothing to do with the Quick Reply.

inc_code.js is the JavaScript that handles posting buttons like adding bold tags etc. Its included in the Quick Reply for the "Preview Reply" button - it calls OpenPreview(); and to validate that you actually typed something in. But that's all its there for, and if it was a JavaScript problem, the only issue would be the buttons not working - not a disappearing table.

I'm posting this here, in the Quick Reply box, in a clean, default install of FireFox 3 - and earlier using Chrome (which uses the same rendering engine as Safari). At work I use IE7 - all with no problems here. Thus the conclusion that its a problem at your end with setup or configuration or something else. Not being oblivious, not trying to hide from something, not trying to be a pain. Just looking at what the evidence points to.<

sorry my mistake. however the double # is just a style problem and would not be causing quick reply to not display.

to be honest I can't think of anything that would prevent it from displaying

For some strange reason it's working now.

You can delete this topic if you want.

Thanks for you time!<

I removed the extraneous pound signs (in case someone wonders where they went...)<
