View Full Version : "Subscribe to this Thread..." form broken in Chrome
I'm using the latest version of Chrome on OS X and after I submit the form to subscribe to a thread it just sends me to the main page on tidalfish.com. I've tried logging out and clearing all my tidalfish.com/www.tidalfish.com cookies, but the bug still occurs.
I've tested it in the latest Firefox and the bug does not occur there, only in Chrome.
Okay, so the bug is caused because of an anchor tag that wraps the entire DIV of the user control panel (div class="usercp_content"). Remove this anchor and the issue will be fixed.

I just subscribed to this thread using Google Chrome 15.0.874.106 on Mac OS X 10.7.2 without any problem. I could not find any missing anchor. Could you please post here the offensive HTML snippet for me to search through the source code? Thanks.
The anchor that was wrapping the usercp_content DIV appears to have been removed as I do not see it anymore in the code.
Now I no longer have to go into the Chrome Web Inspector and delete the href attribute to subscribe to posts. :)

:thumbup: thanks again for letting us know
Strange, the anchor tag now seems to have re-appeared. See the screenshot below where I've pointed out the offending anchor tag in the Chrome Developer Tools.

Jeff,
Thank you for the screenshot. The line above the anchor showed the problem - someone keeps forgetting to add the enclosing </a> tag when adding additional ads to the "ad_global_below_navbar" code snippet of the website. Since the code snippet iterates over many ads, the error was appearing only at certain times. It is fixed in this code snippet.
