Please go to My DU and tell me what you see on your page.
Edited on Fri Oct-05-07 09:33 PM by Radio_Lady
Here are the headings:

Post title Parent Thread Date

The columns are all fouled up with blank spaces under all three headings. The date entries are either wrong or blank.

The left column has information on the number of replies, with parts of the other two columns blank.

What is causing this?

It all does straighten out if I click on "View All" -- the page comes up in a larger format and everything is realigned. This has been going on for a few weeks.

Perhaps I can report it if a couple of you tell me your are experiencing the same thing. Thank you for your participation.

Peace, Love and Happiness...

1. Are you putting double quotes on the text in the heading?
Because that does it for me.

3. Huh? I don't think so.
I just go to "My DU" and click on it.

Where are the double quotes?

I'm not understanding what you mean.

Thanks.....

6. Are you yanking my chain?
You just put double quotes around "My DU".

Whenever I use the double quote (") symbol on a reply header, I can't see the text when I go to My DU.

8. I see what you mean now. I changed the OP and it did line up in a more conventional way...
Edited on Fri Oct-05-07 09:47 PM by Radio_Lady
But that's not the whole problem.

I wish I had a capability with tables here -- maybe we do, but I don't know how to use them. (Tried just now to post what I was seeing, but the DU program does not allow tabs, etc.)

I am seeing entries in the wrong place. Or blank entries, mostly under the date column.

Double quotes aren't the only problem, but they may be contributing.

Thanks for your comments... Xipe Totec. Please excuse my stupidity. I'm really tired tonight...

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Radio Lady

14. You're not stupid - I didn't mean it that way
On the contrary, I really thought you were teasing me on purpose. :hi:

I went through the same strange behavior last week. For a while I thought it was a side effect of being ignored by some poster. After some experiments I realized what it was.


I do think this is a new behavior for DU that was not there before.

Peace

5. Well, Debi, that's comforting...
Let's hope it's :sarcasm:

I can live with the workaround.

Won't bring it up again, at least not with you!

Peace, Love and Happiness

9. Of course I was being sarcastic
and I did check to see if all was well w/my page before I posted.
I thought there was an ongoing joke about lurkers monitoring our posts.
That's what I meant about THEM.

:hi:

10. Sorry, I'm pretty tired tonight. Thanks for the wave.
I've got to shower and go to bed.

Been up since 4 AM and now I'm so wired on coffee at 7:30 PM I'll probably have to sip some chamomile tea or something.

11. I warm milk and pour a little vanilla into it (not the imitation, the real stuff with alcohol)
that gets rid of any jitters from a day of coffee and knocks me out quick.

Good night. :boring:

12. Thanks, sweetie. You're a gem! I have the milk and the REAL vanilla ready!
Last night, I ate a banana right before bedtime and had the worst case of nausea.

Weird stomach.

21. UPDATE: Good sleep! But it didn't help with the Original Problem.
The page entitled MY DU is not looking right. Access your own MY DU page and let me know what you see.

I still can't confirm that anyone else is having this problem.

Are you?

4. Mine is fine
Whenever I have a PC problem at work the technicians ask me to reboot before they will help me. While I do not have the know how to fix it for you, I recommend you try rebooting. Darned if it does'nt work most of the time.

7. I just booted up about 1/2 hour ago. But thanks for the heads-up.
This has been going on for a couple of weeks. Some people responded last time that they saw the same thing, but I can't seem to retrieve that post.

Appreciate your comments, Brad. Have a great weekend!

19. UPDATE: Still a problem on Sunday! The page does not line up in the three columns the way...
Edited on Sun Oct-07-07 04:42 PM by Radio_Lady
it supposed to do. This is on the MY DU page.

Check yours out and let me know what you see.

Odd spaces, dates under the wrong columns, and lot of blanks.
