Is anyone else experiencing the same problem as me?
For the last couple of days, whenever I go to a new (Message Board) page, once the page has finished loading it 'jumps' to the bottom of the page.
Even after clicking 'New Thread' I then had to scroll back to the top of the page to enter the message.
Using IE8.
Hopefully someone is already dealing with it.
I just clicked "Preview Post" and before I could finish previewing the message ...... it jumped to the bottom of the page and I had to scroll back to the top again.
 
And I thought it was just me! I am on IE8 also.

While it is doing that, do you get a bunch of messages flashing down in the lower left-hand corner of your screen (some that say "Error"?). It looks as if it might be encountering some errors loading the page.

It happened to me a few days ago, and it happened again this morning. But it seems to be fine now. I will contact the Board Admins and see if they know anything about it.
 
You are right - it is not happening to me right now.
It was earlier and I tried different sessions, with and without logging in - and yesterday it was happening at various times of the day.
I did not notice any error messages.

They flicker really fast in the lower left-hand corner of the screen (and makes a clicking noise as it is going through them).
 
Use Chrome. :biggrin:
 
Ouch - gotta love corporate blocking...
 
Ah, but shouldn't a web page be tested to work in all currently suported browsers?

It has been all along, so why did it stop now? And it does work most of the time. So is the problem with the web page or the browser?

These are the questions the Admins here are researching and trying to find out.

That's what drove me away from the MS newsgroups/forums.

They (MS) don't even support some of their own browsers on some of their sites!
