If thread prefixes exist, perhaps set it up in the test forum, and allow just a couple of prefixes so we can play / test ?
this way we dont flood these forums with editing threads and posting new stuff, etc.
Doesn't work here with Opera 11.50 and 12.00 pre-alpha. Page jumps to the middle and loading sign top right is running forever. Scrolling is impossible, always jumps back.
Does that mean, badge count on top-right Alert link will be auto updated (with the help of long polling or repeated AJAX requests)? Does it highlight the browser tab to show that there is some new stuff to look at if we are busy in another tab. I am yet waiting for an alert message to appear in bottom-left corner on my browser.
That is a fantastic approach. Keeping this in mind that long polling may not be supported on every server and repeated AJAX requests may increase unnecessary server hits. Hence, attaching alert counts in other AJAX request is a cool and resource efficient method and good compromise. But, I would still love to have a (user-group based) configurable periodic AJAX requests to update the alert.
Not specifically a 1.1 thang as this happens with 1.0.4 but...it seems to be a continued weirdness in 1.1 anyway, so here goes...
Open FireBug in FF6 and then try to click on the Style Chooser, or Contact Us, or indeed anything that triggers an overlay.
The progress bar will show (top right) as it's doing "something" but just stalls and will not open the overlay.
Edit:
This more than likely needs going into "Bugs" if anything, but it's more "a developer side" quirkiness than a typical user would experience day to day.
If that is the case then GMail style FireBug detection and notice would be very helpful that suggests disabling FireBug on XF powered website(s) for improved performance and usability.
