Trying to Make Comments Work Better

I’ve been trying a few small tweaks to fix the problem where comments time out just before finishing; the comment posts, but you get an error message anyway. This is why there are so many duplicated comments.

Please, if you do get an error message posting a comment, or if something new goes wrong, drop me an email letting me know the time you posted it and what happened, so I can look at the logs.

When you click on a post title, the Email field is half missing and there is no URL box at all on the comment section when using IE7

However if you click the "Add your comment: Dialogue" at the bottom of the post it works.

LACJ lol i nearly choked on my coffee laughing, thanks for that!

Thank you. This seems to be a subtle CSS issue caused by IE fixing some other CSS issue.

I've got a quick and dirty fix for now, moving the "did you happen to see this" text to the bottom of the form. But it may take a while to rebuild all past blog posts.

I never seem to have a problem with the double posting, but yes i get the same as Wreck where the input boxes are chopped off when clicking the post title as opposed to the Add Your Comment link.

Carly,

Have you tried it recently? I thought I fixed that. If I didn't, please tell me exactly what browser you are using (and which operating system) and the url of the post you clicked on.
