Is anyone having formatting glitches on DU?

[grasswire]

Please excuse this tech question in GD. Not very many people will see my thread in the help forum. Several of us have commented on this problem. Are there more out there?

What happens: some posts are superimposed directly on top of other posts. And there are some spaces between posts that are filled with vertical lines.

Anyone?

1. Nope, but then you would need to tell us what software you are running! Browser, version of

operating system; etc.

3. I'd like to tell you, but everyone here

laughs at you if you use Internet Explorer...which I do, because I'm a bit of a technophobe.

15. Funny enough, I use Firefox and had a problem with (I think it was version 15) on one aspect of

DU.

2. Yes. Thank you. I thought it was just me.

I have the same exact problems.

4. Just hit refresh. It'll go away.

6. well, it does, but really

like every time I have to unplug an electronic device and re-plug it in so it 'works'. Really?

8. Here's what I got (and I put this in the W&H forum too):

Screenshot one:



Screenshot two:



Screenshot three (alert):



Please note, the "alert" screenshot was altered only because I didn't want any additional drama, but more importantly, was because on my screen it was where one posts was overlapping, then alerting caused the alert screen to fall behind the overlapping post.

9. that's exactly what's happening to me.

I have used the same OS as long as I have been on DU. Same computer, too.

This started a couple of weeks ago. It's driving me batty.

11. Same issues for me.

Same OS, same computer, but when I noticed it was after that last automatic Microsoft update.

14. On DU I can't type sometimes....I'll type "word" and out comes "woooooooooooooooooooooooo"

and then it freezes up. Sometimes it will do it 10 times in a sentence.

It started after a troll sent me a couple of DU mail messages. (and i know they were a troll because after sharing a few emails with me they accidently sent me a message meant for another troll friend talking about how stupid I was and how i was a liar).

10. Compatibility mode

In ie, there may be an icon near the address bar you can click on to turn on compatibility mode - you may have clicked it accidentally (I did). I clicked it again to turn it off and everything went back to normal.

12. This worked for me, thanks

In the latest version of IE it's called "Tracking Protection" instead of "Compatibility Mode."

It gives you the option to "turn off tracking protection," and doing that solves the problem.

13. where exactly is this button? nt

16. I don't have that problem but every morning around 1:00 am Pacific time I'm unable to post. I wait

and wait. If I push sumbit again I get an error message that says I'm not logged in or I tried to duplicate a post. Odd thing is my post still goes up but it takes like 5-10 minutes. This has been going on everytime morning at that time for about a week and a half.

17. Yes, same view as posted above. I thought it was just my computer.

What is the problem? Anyone?
