We can reproduce this error on some devices with specific browsers and on others or with different browsers, the cursor works fine.

It's a tough bug to fix.

Samsung Galaxy S4 with all recent updates. The default browser was updated within the last month. I did mean the database cursor, not the screen cursor.

OK. Thanks.

This bug has been fixed me thinks, (but has only been tested on iOS).

Today I added a single banner ad to the mobile site - served to unregistered users only.

I'm testing the adserver for mobile, using the ad server to count the impressions from unregistered users.

Am thinking in the future to pull images from attachments or an image database of unix and linux server images and use these images to decorate the mobile site a bit.

Another idea, is do to the above, and link to featured threads that have many replies. I have a rough idea to create a pseudo 300x250 ad slot and use that slot to place user icons of users to replies to a thread with the title and number of replies
and serve these.

Or I may opt to experiment with a javascript slider and do the save as above sans the ad server.

Experimenting.

Mobile Prototype Google Site Search

Have added "google site search" back to the site, first with mobile on the bottom of the standard forum search results page, but later on a stand alone page as well (and will add to the desktop version soon).

Search Bar (Bottom of Forum Search Results Page)

Search Results

Will refine this to a stand alone page on mobile and will integrate a similar version into the desktop site soon:

Also there is a stand alone URL link to this Google Site Search as well. Works good, obviously since it's from Google.

UNIX and Linux Forums Google Search Engine
