Why does my browser "click" ( assuming it's the browser trying to lock into a page) ... click click click click whenever I try to load a page with one of those counters in a post??? Sometimes it never loads (I've narrowed it down to one of two member's I think) but it clicks away when anyone with one has posted in the thread I'm trying to load.
Anyone else have this? I'm using VISTA, btw.. could be part of it's sensitivities???  Anyway, it's annoying me now.

It is definitely something to do with those get-widget thingy counters and I agree it is highly annoying having the clicking and the page taking longer to load. ( I don't have vista btw.)

I don't think it's you; I think it's code run from another site so how that site is doing (how many people are using it at once, etc.) makes it faster/slower to update when someone clicks on it here.

Can you run that back by me? I don't click on the counters... do you say that just by loading the thread where there some, makes it know someone is using it???

Yes. You're loading the thread so it updates. It's like a picture loading from another site; it has to load each time you see it, adjust its skirts
 It has to "check" there to run the script each time (can't do here, just regular HTML), do the math so-to-speak.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
