Not sure if this is the right place for this or not. Anybody else have problems with seeing threads with the Firefox browser? I never had problem then a few months ago I couldn't see threads like General Chit Chat and Modern Military 1/72 etc. Now I can see those but not 1/72 Warbirds. I can get to them through Active Topics but it just seems strange that they use to show up on the main page.

I assume you have done the usual trick of clearing out your temp Internet Files??

I did clear out the temporary files. Basically, what I'm seeing is every other topic. So for example, I don't see 1/72 Warbirds, see 1/72 Modern Military, don't see 1/48th scale, see 1/32 etc. Also, no section shows up for Military: Warbirds and Jets. Very weird. I suppose I can use active topics or just use microsoft explorer to look at the forum as it displays everything fine.

Well Firefox is apparently a little sensitive to way comments are tagged in the html code.
It likes having the same number of dashes on each side or if you have an even number of dashes in the first tag you can have an odd number in the second tag as long as it is only 1 greater than the first.
So these are ok:
<!-- MT 09/12/2004 -->
<!-- MT 09/12/2004 --->
These cause additional code to be commented out (For Firefox)
<!----- MT 09/12/2004 ------>
<!-- MT 09/12/2004 ---->
Don't know how many members use Firefox but it seems like it would be a pretty easy fix.

Ah - Now it becomes clearer.
Have fixed the offending pieces of code - see if that's any better.

I have version 1.0.3 of Firefox so either they haven't fixed yet or aren't aware of it.
