Title: Forum Problem
Post by: clawstrider on June 16, 2013, 12:50:12 pm: I'm having a problem scrolling with the forum.

I use Internet Explorer 10 (sue me), and after upgrading noticed that the website scroll bar is broken for me.

I can still scroll up and down using arrow keys, but not using the bar on the right. As I use a laptop, I don't have a scroll wheel.

I don't have this problem on any other website, including other SMF forums using this theme (Kani).

Also, just a note, I would appreciate if you don't bother writing "internet explorer sux, use "..."!!!111", I honestly haven't found a reason to change yet. Thanks.

Ps. Not sure if this is the right place, I know this is support for the server, not the website. If it's wrong, please move.

Not being able to scroll on a website that you go on quite a bit is as good of a reason as any lol.

Sadly, a mouse is not possible for the places I use a laptop, and my laptop does have that feature, but I turned it off as it kept activating when unneeded.

I was more hoping Optical or one of the dev/admins could fix the issue, considering that about 30% of the internet traffic uses IE. (http://gs.statcounter.com/)

The problem is on your end man, it works fine on IE for me. We cant fix something that is only a problem for 1 person.
