Thread:Feedback/Unresponsive script/reply (4)

Unresponsive script on Firefox, MacOSX 10.4.

Lots of grinding and jumping around on the page every time a reply is posted.

This ENTIRE INTERFACE crashes my old browser (Netscape) and nearly crashes Safari, and I'm testing them on 10.4.

By crashes, I mean just loading any strategy.wikimedia.org or liquidthreads page causes a software crash report.

This is a serious access issue for me since these are the only browsers available to me on my old computer (OS9).

If it helps to know, the problem is in the script since it applies to any page in these domains that uses the LiquidThreads interface.


 * Do the developers intend to provide a workaround to fix the accessibility issues?


 * The interface seems eerily similar to Google or /. style interface, which are very user unfriendly to keeping track of long discussions and are more suited to "kick up or down" "post and leave" blogs since it is impossible to keep track where you are in a conversation.

Scrolling up and down the page yields impossible to keep track of which discussions are nested where

(the same problem with similar interfaces used by Google and /. which do not crash my browser. I guess "next gen" means only accessible to new browsers)
