Dear Mr Administrator..

Why is it when I view a thread on my Iphone I can scroll through any pictures , and yet when on my laptop I have to close the picture down, and open the next one in the thread, only a slight inconvienience I know but its bugging me
Is this a possible improvement?
or am I doing somthing stupid

Many thanks

Has anyone else noticed this?

Crusher,

Which browser are you using? In chrome I get a new tab for each attachment I try to open.

Hi Polwart,

I am using Microsoft Explorer, and it sounds like the same as you have described Chrome, a new tab for every picture, only slightly annoying i know , but when the function to scroll is on my Iphone, just wondered if it was easy to install / add the feature to the net?

mmm... I assume you mean on the iphone app rather than in Safari browser? In which case I think its to do with how the different pieces of software access the forum database, and it wouldn't be trivial to rewrite the way it works on the web. That said there was talk at one point of a lightbox type viewer - but it will depend what is available to plugin to the software, and how robust/reliable it is across multiple browsers etc.

Right again Polwort, I do mean the Iphone app

As I said at the start, hardly the largest inconvienience, so I wouldnt put too much thought into it.
