Thread preview?

[storchyman]

I used to be able to read the first couple of lines on a thread by hovering the mouse over the topic, this does not happen any more. Has the site been changed, or is it my computor?

Hi Storchyman,

This appears to be a problem from your end as this feature has not been altered or turned off and was working for me a few moments ago.

If anyone else is having problems with the "thread preview" feature please let me know in this thread.

Yep, it's been off for me for a couple of months now as well.

Okay, let me check into this a little further.

Is it possible that you have scripting turned off, or an add-on that blocks scripting?

please explain???

 

[white_crane]

do you have java scripting disabled? It's a setting that you can enable/disable in the options.

or alternatively, do you have an add-on such as NoScript (for Firefox) which disables java scripting as well?

This may account for you being unable to view the thread preview.

hmmm i had a qick look under options but i couldn't find it.

Can you spell out the path to take?

 

[white_crane]

I just checked and I don't think that scripting is the problem. However, to access it

Internet Explorer
go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom level
scroll down to Scripting and check if Active Scripting is enabled

Firefox
go to Tools > Options > Content
check if Java Scripting is ticked

I checked and it was enabled...

Cheers anyway..
