Just an FYI Tom, the poll requires you to vote in the second question, even if you aren't getting a browser error.

Was just about to post the same thing. I have no issues at all using Firefox, but since I had to answer the second question, I chose "Other."

As above with the second question.Cheers, SLuggy

I do not have a signature. Why are you reading this?

Taken care of. Thanks.Okay, here is a corrolary question... If you browser shows centered content on the main forum page, does refreshing it cause the alignment to go to the left?

Yes. In IE I get the centered content initially, and refreshing fixes it.

Hi TomWhy is not Opera present in your survey, this browser is getting bigger and bigger, and is the standard browser on Android systems...

True, because I use Opera! The problem of centering only occasionally pops up, lets say once every twenty times I visit the forum. Version is Opera 11.61.

The main forum page content is centred for me (it always has been), but refreshing does not change anything. I use Internet Explorer 9. Are you saying that centred content on the main page is an issue?? :huh:EDIT: Ah, I didn't read the instructions properly. The main forum page is aligned to the left, so it seems that I do not have a problem. Give me a few moments to wake up.......

I want to 'paricipate' but I'm not sure what it is! :(

Yes. In IE I get the centered content initially, and refreshing fixes it.
Same here.

The major issue that I'm encountering (I use IE8 exclusively) is that when entering the Reply Editor, a random choice of "options" is always pre-selected!For this reply for example, "Italics" was pre-selected! I've had everything from Bold through Superscript "pre-selected" randomly...In addition, none of the advanced options such as "Quote" or "Code" will work in the "simple editor." I have to select the "More Reply Options" and open the advance editor to access those options.The 

 box frequently makes a complete dog's breakfast of any actual code or script entered, despite the Preview showing it normally. When Submitted, it get's horribly corrupted.

I use IE and the main index is to the left, as (I think) it should be. But when I go into a forum all the titles are centered, and subsequently more difficult to read (I think).Kind regards,

Yes IE9 here and in the main forum page the content is centered, refreshing does not alter it. Doesn't look right to me.

I get issues with Chrome.First, I get this a lot: (I zoomed out to show all of it) This is http://forum.avsim.net/index/Capture-12.pngSecond, like Bill mentioned, sometimes when I use bold, italics, or underline in my post the next few words (once I erase something) automatically become bold, italiced, or underlined.
