Quick change request (in General)


Wasp October 2 2007 1:25 PM EDT

When you click the buy new ba, a box opens in the centre of the screen. Thats fine. HOWEVER when this box opens the cursor is before the 0.

So, when you want to buy 12 BA you type in straight away, 12 then click enter. You've just bought 120 BA. It's a simple change, either have the 0 pre selected, or have it delete itself when you go to type into the box. Even having the cursor start on the right hand side of that zero would solve the problem. A quick fix would sort that out.

It should be highlighted when you click the link.

Having the cursor on the right size won't solve it, as 012 BA is actually 10 BA ;)

Anyway, I think this is a browser issue. Talk to your browser vendor ;)

Nah. Same for me. I'm always buying 10 instead of 1 and it's rather annoying.

Using firefox the 0 is prehighlighted for me.

FF Rules!!

Well, its not highlighted for IE users. Maybe an easy fix to do, not sure how to code so I haven't a clue if it will take a year to add or not. Im sure it will make a few good users happier if it were changed. If you can edit that Jon, that would be great :D

Same problem for me as Waspy.

My goal was to make IE usable and I did that. Past that I have no interest in fighting its quirks.

But it's pure non-obfuscated javascript (the prompt.js script) so if you want to send me a fix, great. :)

Solution: switch to firefox, you can even get a theme that makes it act like IE7 if you really like the look of it.
