Well, not really a forum bug but a browser bug the forum could solve. I did some debugging of the NANFA forum code and found a work around, but it requires someone with server access to fix it.

Problem:
On the Maxthon browser when a post is clicked or text selected the post disappears. These are any users post and it makes no difference whether a person is logged in or just a guest. Highly repeatable.

Solution:
On the NANFA style sheet located at:
http://forum.nanfa.o.../ipb_styles.css
On line #19 is the following style set:

body,div,dl,dt,dd,ul,ol,li,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,pre,form,fieldset,input,textarea,p,blockquote,th,td { margin:0; padding:0; }

The issue turns out to be setting the 'margin' attribute of 'ul' to '0'. Deleting 'ul,' will fix it without any visual effect on the forum display to users. If you wish you can add a line #20 that reads: 'ul { padding:0; }'. But I see no valid visual effect to justify bothering. The original line #19 will then read:

body,div,dl,dt,dd,ol,li,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,pre,form,fieldset,input,textarea,p,blockquote,th,td { margin:0; padding:0; }

That is the least intrusive fix available without visibly effecting any visual display of the forum.

I would really appreciate if this was fixed, as Maxthon contains a number of specialized research tools I built into it. Though this version of Maxthon may be very limited in popularity, there are others this could benefit as well.

Thanks

I will take a look at it as soon as I can. Have you submitted this issue to the developers of the browser?

It's the old version Maxthon classic (stand alone mode), so no I have not submitted a bug report to them. They did a rewrite that messed up the things that made Maxthon so useful to me. I am experimenting with what other browsers I can port my tools to, but for now it remains indispensable. Years of work in this tool set. If you validate the forum code, validator.w3.org, it shows that the code (attributes) involved do not validate properly. Yet CSS is by design supposed to degrade gracefully. So it is still a browser bug issue involving zero margin style sets of tags that are not used properly. Funny thing is that trying to overwrite these styles locally does not resolve the bug. Do not know why.

Anyway, thanks.

Thanks Drew, everything is taken care of
