Whn you go to login, there is a spinner box with 'choose destination' instead of forum index as the default. You receive invalid user name and password with captcha validation to re attempt to loginif you it as the default (ie 'choose detination'). Then if you do attempt to select a destination from the forum spinner box, after the invalid login from not selecting a destination orinally... as soon as you select a forum, you are then autoforwared without using the submit button ( go button )


Change default selection to forum index instead if choose destination that has an empty URL field, triggering an invalid login because of incomplete submit requirements

But I think I understood what you are saying, let me see if I can find that form.

Mike


Here's the template where the "jumpbox" is assembled for display...

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_JUMPBOX -->
	<form method="post" name="jumpbox" action="{S_JUMPBOX_ACTION}" onsubmit="if(document.jumpbox.f.value == -1){return false;}">

	<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
	<tr>
		<td nowrap="nowrap"><span class="gensmall"><!-- IF S_IN_MCP and S_MERGE_SELECT -->{L_SELECT_TOPICS_FROM}<!-- ELSEIF S_IN_MCP -->{L_MODERATE_FORUM}<!-- ELSE -->{L_JUMP_TO}<!-- ENDIF -->:</span>&nbsp;<select name="f" onchange="if(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value != -1){ document.forms['jumpbox'].submit() }">

		<!-- BEGIN jumpbox_forums -->
			<!-- IF jumpbox_forums.S_FORUM_COUNT eq 1 --><option value="-1">------------------</option><!-- ENDIF -->
			<option value="{jumpbox_forums.FORUM_ID}"{jumpbox_forums.SELECTED}><!-- BEGIN level -->&nbsp; &nbsp;<!-- END level -->{jumpbox_forums.FORUM_NAME}</option>
		<!-- END jumpbox_forums -->

		</select>&nbsp;<input class="btnlite" type="submit" value="{L_GO}" /></td>
	</tr>
	</table>

	</form>
<!-- ENDIF -->
Any ideas?

I can't reproduce this on my ipod touch.

I login, goes to the standard confirmation page, and then forwards you to the index.

No issues with mobile forms and login, except page width (only reading/posting in threads you have to manually zoom in on page . Indexes seem fine and auto zooms to correct page width - edit seems to be related to 'code' paste on this page with a fixed width ) on subject pages inside forums. Having mobile version with A better color scheme would be appreciated

Ok so you both have are seeing the mobile theme, and think it is worth while to upgrade to the DBB Classic color scheme?

I thought something was wrong when I first seen it! lol

So yeah... since my SAMSUNG Galaxy S is defaulting to the mobile theme. It would be nice to have the DBB default theme or similar. ;)

I can always deactivate the mobile theme, I just wanted to see if I like it and I think it works a little better than the classic theme in that I don't find myself zooming as much

ummm.. someone change something with the link to the main index page?

When the page loads it's automatically taking me down to about the Descent Dev forum.

This happens with IE and FF.

Seems like the page wants me to see the Game Tracker at the bottom every time the page loads.

In IE8, the focus is now being pulled away from text fields, which is causing havoc when trying to make a post or reply.

Looking at the page source, I see:

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT language="Javascript"> 
window.onblur = function() { window.focus(); }
 
</SCRIPT>
I believe that's the culprit. [I haven't identified what is causing the onblur() events, but it's extremely frustrating that the focus is constantly being pulled away.]

Sorry was trying to keep the D3 tracker from stealing the focus, but found the problem was NOT DBB related and I forgot to remove that script, should be fine now.
