If I go to "Active Topics" and then attempt to adjust the time, so that older topics are shown as active again, nothing happens and the "active" cutoff time remains what it originally was.

I have tested this behavior on IE 6.0.2800, Mozilla 5.0, and Opera 7.23

Could someone else please confirm this tell me if it behaving as designed, etc.

Thanks!
BTW - Awesome forum software!!!!!

Sometimes the LCID number for the page needs to be changed.

Do a search of teh forum as this has been discussed a number of times.

OK, I've updated my site with a global.asa file that sets the LCID number to US English, and I've put on an include to common.asp that does the same thing, and the problem persists.

Active topics actually works, but it doesn't let you set the active cut-off time back.

For instance, I can go to active topics, and it shows all of the currently active topics from the correct time that it is for me. But, if I go to the pull-down menu and set it to show all active topics since 6 hours ago, it simply defaults back to showing active topics for the current time. I'm guessing that active topics should have some variable that is being passed to the sql query, and that varibale is the time/date cut-off point. If that is the case, then the logic behind setting that varibale is not functioning correctly.

P.S. I also tested this functionality on a local IIS server, with the LCID set correctly, and it still has the same errors for all of the browsers listed above, tested on two different systems.

Strike all of that... the function is working correctly on a third system. So, it may be a local problem.

I just noticed, there is no "strike" formatting for WWF. When working on collaborative documents, having a strike-through function is quite nice.
