Images turned off and site is hard to use

Postby hypnostudent » September 24th, 2008, 11:35 am

Some of the 'reply' buttons aren't displayed, on the forums for example.

I'm using FireFox portable 3.0.1 with images turned off, as I don't want the pretty young lady sat next to me on the train seeing 'Warp My Mind' and naked entranced Parker flashing her wares, and unfortunately the site is fairly difficult to use while images are off.

I have had a similar problem with my cell. Not with site but others, same thing, turn of the images to make the site faster and then links and stuff stop working. What are you using that's portable? Laptop, cell, psp, pda?

I use mobile IE on my phone, with images turned off to save data (as my provider's "unlimited internet" package used to have a 12MB/month fair use limit).

The reply/etc buttons appear as text - unfortunately taking up more than a screen - but they work fine for me. The only problem I've had is that this browser has odd scrolling issues with table-based layouts.

I've not tried a mozilla in ages. Have they got over the memory leak issues yet? Maybe I should try it again.
