Select all when clicking on a posted code doesn't work it acts more like a go to top of forum feature. In this case since its only on post here it doesn't select all code.

Code: Select all

test select all doesn't work. Random text below for testing.

You mean when you click on SELECT ALL, it doesn't actually select/highlight all the code? That's odd 'cos that works OK for me.

That's what I get as well - I don't think it has worked for a long time - I've looked on occasion and been surprised at what is shown as active (that is, not a lot and often no topic on which there have been recent posts).

I've never tried clicking "Select All" before today (usually just highlight with the mouse) but yeah, that doesn't work for me either.

As you can see the "select all" is red because I clicked it right now.

I've tried it again and, predictably, SELECT ALL doesn't work if JavaScript is blocked.

Interestingly if I disable NoScript so that JavaScript on this site is blocked, I get the Quick Reply box at the bottom of the page which I don't get when allowing scripts to run on this forum.

You have javascript running?
click here
You can't read this if you have ut99.org blocked in noScript or have disabled javascript at all.
Or am I wrong?

TL/DR: Enable your Javascript, or some things won't work.

Things like "select all" and expanding spoiler tagged content, do not work without JS.
While spoiler tag expansion could be tweaked to gracefully fallback to CSS mechanisms instead (not that is gonna happen, of course), "select all" actually requires a specific JS function to be called, which even differs from browser to browser.

If by clicking on one of those things, it acts like an anchor which leads you to the top of the site for example, that's an indication that you're clicking an anchor element with an href set as "#", but which expects Javascript to be enabled so that the click event is caught by the JS code set for that click instead, so it can do whatever it's coded to do upon that click, and prevent that event to bubble up to the actual browser native code, preventing the jump to the top as well.

In this case, if you inspect the "select all" HTML, you have something like this:

Code: Select all

<a href="#" onclick="selectCode(this); return false;">Select all</a>
The selectCode(this) will call a function to do the selecting, while returning false will tell the browser that the event ends right there and is not meant to bubble up to be processed as a normal click by the browser.

Active topics aren't functioning for me as well, I only see 1.
https://i.gyazo.com/9dd9ef72e47c9917b5f ... 90eba5.png

& yes, select all for code box only scroll the page up to the top for me too.

Firefox Quantum 58.0 (64-bit), Google Chrome Version 64.0.3282.119 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Spoiler
https://i.gyazo.com/709eda83dbc269f4c7d ... 4cb2b6.png If it helps any.
I don't think I've disabled JS. Any idea how to check that out?
Took a quick look in Google Chrome's settings and mine said it's allowed.
Checked my Firefox's about:config settings and the java are all set to default.
Edit: Internet Explorer 11 (Version 11.0.9600.18816) does work with the select all script.:loool: but the active topic doesn't change for me.

Have you tried to click it while the console was open to check if it outputs any error?
What could be happening is that selectCode is not defined at runtime for some reason (like a JS resource not being loaded where this function resides, judging from the other errors there), and it breaks the JS execution and ends up not returning anything, so the browser just proceeds as it's meant to in this case, sending you to the top.

As for the active topics, I never used it myself (I only use "new posts"), but I have tried it and the same topic appears to me as to others or what it is worth, but this one is most definitely a server-side problem in one way or another, nothing to do with the browser.

Then maybe should we disable the active topics part until it's fixed. To avoid any more confusion?

I can read it just fine. Might just be a Firefox setting though.

might be as simple as enabling this under each forum.
