I was just looking around the new User Profile layout and looked at some of my previous Knowledge Base articles and found that someone had asked me a question back in January 2012 for my September 2011 article! :¬O

As most of you know I'm always happy to respond to questions and help where I can - is there anyway users can be notified if people ask questions to KB articles?


Also the images for the links to my website and Twitter account seem to be scrambled: See the first image?

I also see this script error:

Message: 'console' is undefined
Line: 76
Char: 5
Code: 0
URI: https://secure.freeola.com/js/jquery- [space!!!] truncate/jquery.truncate.js

FYI
If any visitor clicks a profile link for PS, XBOX, Wii etc. on IE8 they see this

You guys might have to do a 'Google' and just say IE8 is no longer supported :¬P

Hi Eccles,
That's fixed the script error with IE8.

I still see the scrambled images once I've followed either the Web or Twitter links - they get replaced with the 'trophy' image as shown in my earlier image link.

The problem will be that someone left console.log in the Javascript whilst debugging and this will work in all modern browsers that contain a debugger. It won't work in anything older than IE9 (running IE9 in IE8 or 7 mode won't throw an error as the debugger is still there). I'll try and remember to get the person who did something with this last week to take a look tomorrow.

Just can't seem to replicate it.

I've set up my machine to use IE8 mode in compatibility, and use IE8 standards. This seems to produce fine results, as the images don't mess up.

When I set it to IE8, with IE7 standards it does jump around and go a bit mad, but nothing major.

I'll try and test on a pure IE8 in XP and see what we get.
