Title: Laptop
Post by: N PRGRES on March 30, 2012, 05:12:24 PM
Anyone use a laptop for this site.  Seems the scrolling function is messed up but only on this page, no other site.

Nope, I used to be able to double tap and then scroll down but now it has zero scroll function.  Worked fine a few days ago and now scrolling is a pain

Are you using an external mouse say via a USB hub or the touch pad on your laptap?

My touch pad works fine its the external mouse that wont scroll unless you double click the grab bar.

Mine used to work but now I have to triple click the bar.  I don't know it just seems something changed.  This is the only site I have to triple click to get the scroll bar to work

It doesn't have to do with a laptop or not, it is the browser you are using. Update IE to the latest version and see if that helps.

I am on a laptop using IE 9.0.8112 and the scroll bar works just fine for me, I click on the scroll bar and drag it up and down without having to double click on it. There has to be something else installed on your laptop (like some add-on to your browser) that is not causing it to function.

Just disabled everything under add-ons. No change. Used M/S Outlook browser to link to your site. Your website page works normal. The forum doesn't. Nothing changed on my machine since before and after the upgrade. Not really a big deal except the being curious as to what happened part. I can scroll with the wheel or by double clicking the grab bar so its not like I lost any functionality. Just the gee whiz of what happened? Thanks for all you do Hitman

I've been using a laptop for the site for quite some time now. I use the Firefox browser now, but I used IE for quite some time. They both work very well. I don't have a problem with the site with a laptop.

I'm much worse. Simply tell me there is a laser beam on the wall and I'll spend days looking for it.
