Good point. I know IE6 still has a decent user-base but I really felt I shouldn't spend the enormous amount of time necessary to make this site work with it. IE8 is due out soon and for web developers to continue supporting IE6 is the reaso

Someone wanna lend a css hand? Why is ie7 running the div off horizontally on every other content load? http://www.streetread.com/bad.png

I was just explaining the idea behind it. I'm not disagreeing. I'm removing the scrolling mechanism for the article list completely.

Ok, the weird article scrolling is being removed momentarily. Thank you for the feedback.

You would really rather input all your symbols every time you visit the site? Instead of filling out a 4 field simple form?

New window link fixed. Worked fine earlier. Strange.

The list of items goes back the latest 100 items. When you are scrolling towards the bottom and you reach the end, it brings you back to the top.

I could perhaps restore the scrollbar and keep the buttons if they are desired. I've barely had any issues with the scrolling, with the exception of Opera.

As I said earlier, if you're at the top, you shouldn't scroll up, you should scroll down.

by mstefff 18y ago
There isn't anything wrong with the wrap-around. If you're at the top of the list you shouldn't scroll up, you should be scrolling down towards the bottom.

What browser/os are you using?

That's a very good idea and I'll definitely consider implementing that soon. Thanks.

If you were to change the stocks without being logged in, once you navigate away from the site, the symbols would be lost, and I felt users might be annoyed by that. Registering literally takes seconds too.

Thank you. Yes, I understand. With all of the scrolling buttons I was sort of torn between which direction to go. It seemed that both made sense and I really couldn't know what users would expect.

by mstefff 18y ago
Are you referring to how the list loops to the end? You're supposed to be scrolling down but I see how that could get confusing. I was worried some users would scroll in the wrong direction.

Hey, My latest web application went public today and I'd love to hear some input from everyone. The site is called Streetread. I've been dubbing it 'Google Reader meets Wall Street'. Streetread is a single-page ajax-driven interface that si

First, I'd recommend using a debian-based distro like Ubuntu. From my experience, it is much easier to use and configure, and the amount of tutorials, etc, available for it is overwhelming.

Oh yea.. I'm currently using Google/Yahoo mobile finance quote pages in an IFRAME, but they are pretty ugly and I'm not sure if thats legal..
