Default Drop down menus problem

im having problems with the drop down menus in the forum. when i click forums, the first menu shows, but when i select one of those items (ie C5 Corvettes), only a small square shows in the top left of the window. after clicking, the status bar on the bottom left says error on page. i tried IE8 and firefox with the same results. i also downloaded the latest version of java. it works fine on the main page, but once the forums are enterd it isnt working right for me. is anyone else having this issue?

You clicked the "Forums" button in the red line menu above, then clicked on a forum name that has subforums under it, and you saw the names of the subforums?

Still not working for me at 10:13 AM CDT.

Hold down the Ctrl button and press F5. See if that clears it up.

Tried it, didn;t work for me. Clicking on "Forums" on the red bar, opens the box, but scrolling to a forum won't open the links. I can get into the forums from the main page, but on the C3 forum Tech heading opens, I can't get to General section because I need to enter it through the link on the red bar.

I glad to see I'm not alone with this problem.

It's working okay for me now without having to press CNTRL-F5. I did just try it with the same browser I always use - Firefox - and it is working okay.

I'd say IB techs saw the thread and fixed something.

Thanks.

Try it again without pressing any special keys - just click on a forum title that has subforums - they should now show up.

Strange. Working okay for me this AM with Firefox. Don't even have to click on a forum name that has subforums. Just mouse over a forum name and it shows all the subforum names. Click on a subforum name and it goes to it.
