It totally doesn't work

September 9, 2005 12:25 AM

So, uh, when you check through your old Ask.Me threads that you've posted in, and use the numbers at the bottom to skip pages (or the "Next" link)? It totally doesn't work (perhaps the offset variable is broken?). Firefox and IE. Just FYI.

Also, as was mentioned before, that whole "donate to the redcross thing" will break the "login" link in ask.me if you're not logged in.

although it's quite possible i'm crazy.

on both fronts.

ok. I am crazy. I guess clicking on the number will start you at the same beginning post but you'll see a hell of a lot more listed underneath it.

awesome.

Yeah, that seems pretty busted. Instead of showing say, posts 301-350, it's more like 1-350. I'm pretty sure that's not the intent, so you're not too crazy.

ff, click on the last number and you'll be able to see all your ask.me posts on one page. I like this "feature" as it makes it easy to search if you know a word you used.

This is a known bug on Matt's list of things to fix. It's been months, though, so maybe he needs another bugging.
