    Hi. In the Netscape Navigator section (under Internet), there's a thread called "Which Browser." The table claims that there are 30 replies, and it also indicates that the replies use three sections. However, when I look at the thread, there seems to be just a handful of replies--five, I think--and when I click on sections 2 and 3, there are no replies there. I tried this on three different browsers (Opera 6, IE 6, and Netscape 7) just to be sure that the problem wasn't browser specific. I had the same problem on all three. So, what gives? Are there really 30 replies and most of them aren't showing up, or is the BBS software having a bad day?

    :D Seems to be a glitch.
    I'm using IE and see it marked as 30 replies....but there's certainly not that many when the thread is opened.

    Hi cybernut and Daizy,

    'Twas a glitch in the BBS software! (I hope Brett is watching.) I alerted Arie, when I split washoe's last post on Netscape crashes after playing music. At that point in time there were 26 replies.

    I started a new Thread with washoe's post as "Which Browser ". The number of replies and views were carried over, thus the two pages shown, when actually this is only one.

    Disconcerting, no?

    Ramona :D

    :D Ohhhhhh Ramona...must you encourage Brett in his slaughtering of our great language? :rolleyes:

    Thanks for the update. So happy to hear that it wasn't a severe lack of coffee that was making my eyes bleary! :D
