NationStates Jolt Archive

I 've noticed "Test" on the right side of posts in the forum?
Is some programmer having some fun at our expense?

:)

I heard mention of this yesterday from another mod, but didn't pursue it. I don't see what you refer to under Windows XP, running either IE6 SP1 or Opera 7.

Some questions: What browser are you using? What OS? Have you seen this on any other non-Jolt forums? Have you seen this on other non-NS Jolt forums? Does it appear in every topic? If not, provide a link. Does it appear on all puppet accounts or just one nation login?If anyone else is seeing this, feel free to reply.

Windows 98 using IE 5.01.
Happens to every POST (all threads, anyone's threads).

My Firefox 1.0 isn't doing it, btw :confused:

I've tried a site on http://s3.invisionfree.com and no issues.

Changing nation doesn't make a difference either.

(aka Jeruselem).

A quick scan of Jolt's General and Technical forum's didn't show anyone else reporting this. I suspect this is a question only Jolt admins can answer. I'll leave this open for others to post in, or see if it just goes away when someone is done testing.

IE 5.01? Gawd. Time to upgrade, or just ignore it in favor of Firefox.

Thanks, I'm using my "slow" PC which means using IE 5.5 or 6.0 was not feasible.

A screenshot would probably be helpful, as well as the sourcecode for the page.

A scan of the sourcecode under IE reveals the text for "test" appearing in the drop-list of available topics (Return to Castle Wolfenstein's RTCW Test Forums and Delta Force Test Forums), as well as the few times we've mentioned it in the title and posts. There is nothing showing anywhere else.

I also scanned the images, as a floating "test" image would presumably appear as part of every post (just as post buttons do). I'm not all that familiar with CSS or other methods to have repeating elements appear without showing up in the primary source code, but perhaps someone with webdesign experience could address that possibility.

In short, it ain't there for me to see. Sorry, can't help ya.

Problem is gone now. Probably an "ACT OF GOD".

:D
