why cant the site wait til i click / hover on something, rather than obscure the page when i move mouse over a link..?
actually, just thinking this is a google/chrome thing.. anyone else?

If it's what I think you mean, it's a Chrome thing - although I do like it when it converts measurements etc automatically!0

Not sure if this is connected or if my lappy's being particularly neurotic. Just recently when I click on a post it's text appears over the thread before it slowly fades away. Any thougts, anyone?
ETA - just wondering if it's a connection speed problem.....................I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

preview occurs with all browsers i think (i use ie, opera, ff and chrome ). i think there might be a FF add-on to deal with this however.A new abacus

You had to bring politics into it.....
It's a pain.
Other websites which are a pain for this include Royal Mail and DSG websites....go anywhere near the 'tabs' and crap covers the part of the page you actually wanted to click on...British Ex-pat in British Columbia!0 -
I use opera and the preview occurs only when I hover right on the title. I did try chrome once (as it came pre-installed on my lappy) and the previews were coming up all over the place.Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.0
