Problems view posts, especially those with replies

I'm guessing it's a combination of the forum software and my browser (NS 4.7), but in general, upon first visiting any post in forums, it shows up blank. A post with no replies will display upon reload, but a post with replies never will. I've looked at the html source of posts with replies, and the tables are never closed. If I were pessimistic, I'd say don't bother replying, as I'll never see it, but I'll check 'notify by email.'

Get a new browser. I hate it when people used to tell me that - but really, how can you continue using that buggy piece of netscape trash.

Try a real browser like mozilla (emerge mozilla). It is fast and stable and standards compliant - what more could you want?

I'll have to disagree with that. I've been using Mozilla since 0.9.3 and all I can say is that it is standards-compliant. It's getting more stable in each new version, but is by no means fast. A fast browser is Galeon, which uses the Gecko rendering engine from Mozilla (the engine is indeed fast).
