<HTML>Maybe, and I'm just having a guess coz I'm bored here, maybe it breaks when we have too many posts and not enough threads, there's quite a few of 50+ threads down there.</HTML>

<HTML>Actually, this problem is weird. It seems to come and go, but I've no idea why the Fforum breaks down like that. It's working fine for new threads now. I wonder if it's something in the title of a thread that upsets it by mucking up the HTML? Just trying to think back, maybe it's apostrophes that upsets it?</HTML>

<HTML>seems to work for me if i go to the threaded view button on the top of the fforum. can see all the way down to the first baby threads there. Oh how much fun they had. Anyway hope this helps. Charles</HTML>

<HTML>could be the parentheses? (don't know that I spelled that correctly!)

I think the last "whole" post to go in had them and after that, I think the Older Messages link was gone.

Very curious indeed!</HTML>

<HTML>Spelt correctly...

I'm sure it's related to the thread title rather tthan anything else, mostly as HTML itself in posts isn't always associated with the problem. However 'Thred' view seems to avoid this probelm, which suggests that there may be a different cause entirely.

I think that if we all check whenever we post, and write it up when it does, we moght understand what sends it doolalley</HTML>
