pages are jump-scrolling when i load them

Ben,



Mine started perhaps Friday... I think it was because you had one of those ads on the bottom of the page that was dancing and whatnot.



It may have had something to do with the fact that there was one at the top of the page and another at the bottom.



I don't know how all the coding affects this stuff. But, I have no dancing ads on my screen today, and the page loads perfectly now.





Scratch that. Pages are loading up and down and up again. There's new Flash ads on top and bottom of the page.
 
I was playing around / testing various things on my ipad last night and i have narrowed it down to the very last advertisement at the bottom of the screen. When it refreshes with a *completely* different advertisement, my screen will jump to the bottom. Hitting the refresh button for the browser will not cause it to jump-scroll as the ad stays the same. However, if I navigate to another unread topic and then come back to the original page - I will get the jump-scrolling to the bottom.



Also, i have noticed some mid-page jump-scrolling, and I am sure that is related to the side ad that is coming up. However, that loads pretty fast so the mid-page jump-scrolling does not always occur.



Needless to say, this issue is annoying as hell.
 
I am having this same issue and am on a Mac as well... Sometimes if it jumps to the bottom and I do not touch the scroll it will pop back to the middle or top. Very annoying of course.
 
Sorry to keep beating a dead horse but the jump scrolling is making surfing autopia pretty unbearable...no issues on my PC but I use the ipad/safari 90% of the time...
 
I told Ben, he is working on it. For me on the laptop I use chrome. What happens is that if I reply I can't leave the page. It jumps from top to bottom each time I press the "back" key.



On our desk top we use firefox. No problems.
 
Hey guys,



They are releasing a patch that supposedly fixes this issue. It is still in Beta. Once its ready to go, we will be implementing it.



Ben
