Mouse-wheel Scroll issue.

Lost mouse-wheel scrolling capability within forums . Anyone else have that problem? know a fix?

This is weird--and I think this is the only site I've experienced this. In the "index" page--say within Hardcore Amateurs--I can scroll with the wheel normally, through all the titles of the individual threads. But when I open a thread, I can no longer use the wheel--I can only scroll by dragging the marker over at the far right of the page.

Obviously this is not an end-of-the-world situation, but I'm curious what's going on.

Weird. Now it's working.

And now it's not.

A bit more about this continuing mystery saga: if I open a thread by clicking on its title, or its "last page" link, the scroll wheel works fine. However, if I click on the "go-to-where-you-left-off arrow," the scroll wheel doesn't function.

So far, this is the only website where I've discovered this issue.

I may have just discovered something else. If I get into a thread and the scroll-wheel doesn't work, if I move the scroll wheel with the control key down--so as to change viewing size--after that it will work normal.

Get a new mouse

Everything's working fine now.

I think this was all a consequence of having previously navigated in Google Earth with the control+scroll. Doing that again here seems to have reset whatever needed resetting. There were things about it (like it working in the index, but not within the thread) that were weird, but I have no need to fathom the unfathomable. Just relieved it works.

Hopefully this experience might help someone else someday.
