Every page gets cut off at the bottom and needs to be refreshed. Top banner has a gap in the center.

iPhone 3Gs
iOS 5.0.1

Can you screenshot the bottom before refreshing please. I am aware of the header banner. I only have an ipad (which displays fine), so it is quite hard for me to test, and is also why the issues have crept in.

I have this problem too but it is intermittent and refreshing doesn't work.

Yea, mine is intermittent as well. I tried to get a screen capture, but my device stopped exhibiting the issue.

I get the same thing...

Valete,

I got the cut off at the bottom last night while I was checking my PMs, and it caught me off guard. Nothing worth making a fuss about though. I don't get on with my ipod much.

What pages does it occur on, forum, gallery, home and articles, or just forum pages?

It was doing it on all of the forum pages for me. I didn't check any other pages though. My device stopped exhibiting the issue, so it may not have been Dakka at all.

I found that tilting the phone so it reorients itself allows the rest of the page to be displayed when that happens.

Forums for me.

Just the forums. Also, if it helps,

iPhone 3GS, 5.0.1

A screenshot of where it cuts off would really help a lot too. Thanks.

I have the same problem, but I can fix it by either turning the phone, or zooming in and then back out.

A different problem that I only have on DakkaDakka is that when I have multiple Dakka tabs open I can close one and instead of closing the tab the whole browser shuts down. When I restart the browser the tab I tried to close opens up again. It only does it at random times though, and it not a game breaker, just slightly annoying.

I've had it happen on other sites too so I don't think it's dakkadakka it's probably the iOS sucking.

I've had this too, on a iPhone 4 for me.

I have only recently changed my viewing option from the classic Dakka to the phone friendly version. No problem before?

Generally it happens at the start of a session, usually when opening a subforum; like when I just opened nuts and bolts to say this!

I get the first screenful okay and can pull down the notifications screen but scrolling down just shows grey. Sorry I don't know how to screenshot on this but will post when I figure that out.

I can solve it by going back and then forwarding to the page again or reselecting the subject/forum again. I can also do It by scrolling up and zooming in, zooming out produces the full page.

Cracked it!

I'm guessing its okay to attach this to Dakka on this one (hopefully helpful?) occasion -

Yup thanks. From the description and screenshot I think that this is almost certainly an iOS bug. I've not been able to replicate on ipad (the only iOS device I have), but will give some more thought as to what might be causing it.

Next time it happens, could you click on 'thread tools' and let me know if the popup works please, and if so, what effect it has on the grey bit.

I can open both the thread and forum tools drop downs. As with the main screen when it happens all options/links are active.

Now I pay about with it the jump to top button (? The grey arrow one between quote and report) doesn't appear to work when this happens, but that may be a fat finger/small screen issue?

Reorientating the screen works for me. Once again this happens on other sites too so it's an iOS thing.
