ANNOUNCEMENT : new look for BC

**azabaz_ipoh** · 05-31-2007, 10:28 PM

i cant find any javascript thingy in the security settings. all i can find is active X or something. forgive my ignorance on this matter. what's funny though is that all the other options like new posts, and today's posts, and member's list and even the quick links are working but not the search option.

..what version of IE you're using, just click on the 'Help' button above and then click on 'About Internet Explorer'..you should see which version of IE you're using..

yep, IE 7. that's the version i am using. i tried to find the java thingy and was told to upgrade my java. so i did. now the search option goes twilight zone. sometimes i click on it, the small box appear. other times, nothing happen. most of the time it works when i just clicked on a topic to read. then i clicked search and the small box appear. i read the topic and when i clicked search again, back to square one. this is baffling me to say the least.

well, looks like *some* ppl with IE7 is having issues. but i have tested it myself and it worked for me.

to see if you have javascript is simple, do you see the advertising on the left hand column? if not, then javascript is not enabled. if you see the advertising and you are still not seeing the search box, you can try go to:

for the time being...

**susanong** · 06-01-2007, 01:28 AM

**susanong** · 06-01-2007, 01:31 AM

Have a look at this lads:

FYI, Java and Javascript are different things - don't get mixed up!

Thank you wilfred. i hope by lads, you mean ladies, because i am no guy and i believe so is susan. he he he he. i checked the javascript and it is enable. but still the search option kinda goes twilight zone on me. nonetheless, the method kwun mention still can work. so if i want to search, i simply open the search option in a new tab. just a little more work. no biggie.

I've tested it (IE6, IE7, and FF2) on your site and it works. Strangely, nothing happens in Opera, but that hardly matters. IE5 never gets this right, but it won't be harmed either.

BTW -- hacky, hacky stylesheet

Beware the allure of CSS hacks. They are fiends in disguise. Bewaaaaare!

Thanks for the code. i have included it.
