New post icons

[RedGren]

Has anyone else seen this?

The icons for new posts and no new posts (red and yellow folders, respectively), used to work great.

Now, it doesn't seem to work well at all. It was very nice to see what new had been added.

I assume it is done with cookies or something, and I have them turned on (I get logged in allright).

Any ideas why?

works for me

It works for me also. Have you cleared your cache?

I have cleared the bbs cache numerous times already.

The folder icons haven't worked for me on NS 6 yet, I have tried clearing my cache. Otherwise the site looks great.

the old folders never used to show up for me, in netscape 4.x for linux and on the macaddict forums it didn't work on my mac with netscape 4.x (macaddict is also ubb), later i started using konqueror and i had the same problem, now with the update they work and i'm always logged in... it's great!

Works for me in Win32 but not in Mozilla in linux. Seems that the folder/red folder/flaming folder is added by javascript, and if you type javascript: in your Mozilla location bar, you will be treated to the hundreds of "redeclaration of const closed" errors. Sensei - need some JS help? or is this a UBB thang?

for me it worked in netscape 4.7, but since upping to 6.01, they went away.. :(

I can live without them, but they were nice..
they also work fine at work.. win2k though..

freaker :cool:

this is why they call me gorn, sensei if you could make this modification also :-D

file ubb/Templates/public_forum_page.pl

line 252, var closed is declared, i don't know why but mozilla dies with this variable, change it to close

line 257 too
and 267

(note i'm using the demo so it could be different but look for: var closed = "$closed"; and if (closed == "X"))

i'll email ubb about it
about the other too (konqueror graemlins)

good luck!

Mozilla 0.8 for Linux still has this problem. I personally find it quite irritating.
