When clicking on a URL in a post, a new window/tab doesn't launch, it redirects the person away from the forum. This should never, ever, ever, happen.

Yeah, me too. But most of the time I forget and then just close the tab and then I'm knocked out of the forum.

it is to me the most irritating thing since the upgrade.

as Pat said the right click maneuver works but so used to not having to that i forget sometimes.

its like having a broken turn sig switch and having to manually move it to make the light blink.

Well, good to know that it's not just me:).....and I have also noticed that about every second or third day, even though I have the little box toggled to keep me logged in, I have to go back and re-enter my ID & password??

:2cents: I usually right click on link to either new tab or new window, but, if I just click on link, view it and THEN hit my <- button, it goes right back to the forum. I haven't had any issues.
Issue I have I log onto this site on 4 different computers, depending where I am and one of 3 I use at work, when I log on it comes up pphmobile? Totally different format, cleared cookie, retyped etc, etc- stopped using that computer. Sorry I stole post..... :oops:

Yeah, PPHMobile is the crappy view that we who use smart phones to access the site are apparently stuck with. There should be a way to default to the "normal" web site is so desired, but this issue has not been addressed. Most sites offer this option, including e-bay, FTE, etc, etc.

Thanks, that works awesome!

I don't have the login problem, but I use Firefox. Not sure if that matters.
