So instead of getting to read the page content progressivley as it loads, you're looking at a blank page till the entire page loads. In threads as long as "Freedom of Speech", on a forum that doesn't break it's threads up into 'pages', this can be really annoying. It's a web page tip. Each post should be an individual table. n/a

And 30 seconds may not sound like much on paper, but in terms of loading a forum page it's an eternity and a half. http://www.davidn.co.nr - Games, music, living in America

Domarius Registered 12/01/2004 Points 9	27th January, 2004 at 04:52:45 - Sorry guys, I mistook this forum for one that welcomes "comments about the site". If this is not the case, then I can understand the spitefull responses, and interpretation of my 2 comments as "bitching". In which case, I think the forum description should be worded so as not to welcome feedback on the site. Thanks TigerWorks and Wong Chung Bang, for supporting my observation. Rycon, I wasn't saying it was broke, just commenting/suggesting. I won't be loosing any sleep over how this site is actually designed. I was just doing what I thought the forum description allowed.

Clubsoft Administrator Weeeeeeee Registered 02/12/2001 Points 253	27th January, 2004 at 08:49:44 - This forum is for posting suggestions and improvements.. Thanks Domarius, but as someone posted above everythings in a master table which is rather vital anyway so its not really possible .: Apocalyptic Coders - www.acoders.com :.
Rycon Registered 20/09/2002 Points 996	27th January, 2004 at 10:44:51 - its cool, your just trying to help. We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams...
jast Registered 03/01/2014 01:12:19 Points 186	27th January, 2004 at 15:20:40 - You could predefine the table with <colgroup> and <col> tags... n/a
Ashman Possibly Insane Registered 12/06/2002 Points 3974	27th January, 2004 at 15:57:12 - Cybermaze... THAT was funny?! I was looking at it afterwards thinking how lame it was!

AndyUK Mascot Maniac Registered 01/08/2002 Points 14586	27th January, 2004 at 18:33:28 - Come on Admins at least consider it! as far as i can see that is a suggestion not a 'bitch' these forums are the only ones i visit that dont use pages and you could have put that better pete .
Domarius Registered 12/01/2004 Points 9	27th January, 2004 at 20:09:07 - Obviously it's not really something that's worth the effort if it would mean re-working the entire back-end of the site, I can understand that. I thought it was worth saying something about though, since such a large percentage of internet users use Internet Explorer. n/a
David Newton (DavidN) Invisible Registered 27/10/2002 Points 8322	27th January, 2004 at 20:27:32 - Andyuk: I'm open to the suggestion, but the admins have no control over how the site's coded. http://www.davidn.co.nr - Games, music, living in America
Cybermaze Registered 03/04/2003 Points 853	28th January, 2004 at 04:22:02 - I bet you did Ashman... If you knew, I would have to kill you...
AndyUK Mascot Maniac Registered 01/08/2002 Points 14586	28th January, 2004 at 07:19:28 - oh, ok then. .
Muz Registered 14/02/2002 Points 6499	28th January, 2004 at 09:54:27 - Yeah, I've always had a prob with that. I mean, I don't mind it being on one table, it's just that it's on one page. Real hell on some of the forum posts. Disclaimer: Any sarcasm in my posts will not be mentioned as that would ruin the purpose. It is assumed that the reader is intelligent enough to tell the difference between what is sarcasm and what is not.
