Just checking as the last week or so i had issues loading from the Active topic button. Often it just loads up with a blank white screen under the header and i then have to load via the indervidual forum headings

I'm hoping its not just me

Sweet..

Ditch the Commodore 64 boys.

now there's a blast from the past...

In 1982 I reckon that $595 was about 2.5-3 weeks wages to a Mechanic, by 1985 I was on $15k a year in Perth, and my house (fibro 3x1 on 1000sqm block) in Dianella cost us $38,000. We could have gone outer suburbs like Whitfords and got a 4x2 brick and tile for less..

We definately could not afford a computor nor would we have had a use for one, we had TV!!

^^^^^That's gold Galah.
Can anybody tell me what $1595 (in 1982) was worth compared to today - I'm guessing about 30K.

Nearly 5 weeks of the average wage , nowadays a couple of days pay can get you a decent laptop.

1982
The estimate of average weekly ordinary time earnings
for full-time adults and the respective quarterly changes
are shown below:
Average Change from
Full-time weekly ordinary previous
adults time earnings (S) quarter (%)
Males $338.80 4.4
Females $270.60 3.5
Persons $317.60 4.1

2012
Full-time adult ordinary time earnings $1 352.70

Back on topic, I think the issue is related to the way that later versions of browsers (at least on a mac) open up all your old windows whenever you open the program.

So let's say I'm browsing seabreeze, skip to another tab, do some more browsing, then I close Firefox.


Next time I open Firefox it will open the hidden seabreeze window and conveniently hide it for me.

I then open seabreeze active topics in a new window, and the new code on seabreeze shows me all the topics that have been posted since the last time that active topics was opened, which was 5 seconds ago... which is none.

Yes it's annoying for me as well... Bring back the old system!

Shall have to look into your challenge Nebs. Is it still doing it?
