I've written a new mini-forum to plug into my sites.
It uses plenty of AJAX and stuff.
In FF, if someone posts while you are reading a thread then the new post will show up at the bottom. This doesn't work in IE, however
Could you take a look and tell me how it does in your browser?
http://www.lonford.co.uk/bar (click on Forum).
Login 'matt' 'matt' or 'bob' 'bob' (or create your own).
I've provided two logins so you can test the 'post-popup' for yourselves.
P.S. The rest of that site does pretty much nothing.

I tried in IE and didn't see anything (could be because no one posted or your above quote).
why doesn't it work in IE?

Everything is functional in IE, but new posts don't appear as they are posted. They do in FireFox.
If you log in in seperate broswers (or PC's) then you can post on one browser while watching the other (if you see what I mean).
In fact, you could just log in on seperate browsers as the same person - it should still work. (Edit - no it won't
)

Let me be clear about what to do:
View the same forum topic in two different (ie. IE & FF) browsers. Post in the IE one, and it should appear (after a wait of up to 10 seconds) in the FF one.
Post in the FF one, and it
should appear in the IE one, but it doesn't

I would suggest adding a <noscript> warning for those of us who use NoScript.

Nice and quick. I found a bug. I posted the details in your forum.

If you set the price of a product to £0.20p it gets reset back up to the global profit margin price. I wanted to make Absolut Blue a loss leader to get people (me) into the bar. But I can't. Boo...
Even though that bit (well, most) of the site has not been finished yet
, I cannot reproduce your bug.
Are you sure you were clicking on 'Set Stock Prices' and not 'Set Global Profit' ?

Positive. The bug manifested itself when I bought some more stock of the Absolut. If you go in an look now you'll see I bought another 10 units, and that reset the price to £1.
