Another day on the down-low...hopefully Bush won't speak again tomorrow, so maybe the market can come back up...SURE

@cognos - are you going to let us know if it was successful or not. I know my hubaddiction has grown to a point of being out of control when my first thought when seeing your comment was would that make a good market.... lol...

I was testing the gui of the markets for Tom.
For some users, when cashing in or commenting, the gui does not display properly when returning to the market screen.
I used my prev comment to get a picture of the prob. I tried prtscrn to capture the view, but when i attempted to email it, the css didn't port, so NO, the test was a failure.
then, i tried to save the view using File->SaveAs, created the mht file. before i mailed the mht file to tom, i opened it, and the problem was no longer present.
i tried this with cashing-in predictions as well, to no avail.

so, in short, the test failed.
sorry Tom and all hubdubbers that i could not help to debug the problem. maybe someone else has some ideas.
(the problem has been reported by more than one hubdubber)

@ cognos,

I had the identical problems you described. I eventually took a cut and paste, cropped it down imported to to Paint, exporte to PPT as a JPEG, zipped it and then, finally it transmitted. Sheesh.

@v&h, all others
yes. Tom now has a few samples. I think he's narrowed it down quite a bit, and should be closing in on the problem soon. Thank you all for your patience.

@diesel
you'd have to be experiencing the problem. many users are NOT experiencing the problem. Seems to exists only on certain OS/browser combinations, and then, it also depends on the users site settings. However, Tom has the screen captures he needs now, and is fixing it now.
thanks for your concern.

btw: when did i not speak in english?

Guys the problem of the success messages taking up a large part of the top of the screen on certain OS/browser combinations should now be resolved (thanks to help from cognos)

@congos..i was being sarcastic. i didn't understand what you ment by some of the "english" you was using.(gui,css didn't port) then read some more comments and understood from what valor said. i was having some problems also, (have been for awhile) but figured it was my puter. have a nice day.
