    I don't know if it's a site problem or something on my end, but my PMs aren't showing up in a pop-up. I checked my User CP and the setting is still set for Pop-up notification.

    Anyway, I haven't changed browsers or anything so I don't think it's on my end. Any help would be appreciated. Knowing it's not working, I keep checking the Private Message area.

    Also, this happened before, but fixed itself. I know I got a pop-up yesterday or the day before.

    Thanks Elk, I was almost certain it wasn't on my end so it helps to know it's not just me. I'm the type that always thinks it's me and end up making things worse by trying to fix them :oops: :laugh:

    Sorta,
    The popup is javascript code, and how firefox works is it doesn't execute javascript until all the images from the page are loaded. Now since our site is getting so much traffic and all the images on the who last visited, its taking longer and longer for your pm popup to come up and most times you have already clicked on another page on the site.

    Hope that explains it

    Uh oh, techno jargon :mrgreen: Thanks for the info, it makes enough sense to me. I guess I'm just going to fast to see the lovely and positive posts our members have been posting :-?

    Thanks for answering.

    I am not seeing them anymore in IE7. Maybe I turned this option off.
