Just to report some possible errors in the latest version 9.7

forum_topics.asp
on line 923 (where links to subforums for mobile version are build) intForumID should be changed to intSubForumID i guess

forum_posts.asp
line 1221 an opening <tr> tag is missing from what i can see

forum_password_form.asp page is causing an server error when accessed by mobile devices on my server. The reason is "Variable is undefined: 'strForumName'" in the included status_bar_header_inc.asp file (i guess the strForumName variable is missing from all pages that do not have forums opened)

Mobile version has so far resulted in mixed feeling between few of our members that do actually use them.
I hope i will be able to tweak this part of the code a bit and let you know if i come with something useful (altough i'm far from a good developer :( )

Thank you for this will look at fixing these for the next release.

Did find during testing that some people did not like the mobile view will the majority loved it. Those that did not like it tended to use larger Tablets like the IPad, which is why for those people a 'Switch to Classic View' was added to the bottom of the forums home page which will switch off the mobile view.

Yeah .. i'm not concerned about mobile version too much since i honestly consider it as a nice bonus and not something of high priority (especially for my site which is photography oriented).
And .. as far i can tell, we are once again where we were in the netscape and IE 4 days .. each device (browser) has its own "way of thinking" :)

btw .. i'm not really sure if this is the appropriate place to ask this(or should i open a support ticket instead) but what should i consider a "normal" number of errors like
"Error Details: err_SQLServer_getSessionData()_save_new_session_data - Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server - Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__tblSession__11D4A34F'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.tblSession'." (all for guests visitors)
We happen to have 200-400 of these per day.

The database error you mention is a session issue and has been fixed in 9.70.

The reason for it is that even though the session ID is made of 4 parts each containing random characters and numbers up to 8 charters long looking like:-

cd4ee523-4a18-c41535f1-40575-5893f6a

It seems that ASP's randomising is not that random, and even though each group is built individually some session ID's were the same as others causing an error when entering it to the database.

To fix this issue a 10 digit number is now added to the end of each session ID which is created from the double-precision number representation of the date down to the milli second so that it would now be virtually impossible for the session ID to match another.

Ok, here is another very minor thing (but can cause page display problems if one is incorporating forum layout in custom one);
Report_post.asp is missing a closing </div> tag at the end of the page (right after including footer page). This is actually a old one but i never bothered with reporting it (as said, it is a very minor thing)

I think the problems that some users do experience are normally associated with running the software with other modifications, or using external custom layouts. I know that some times people refer to this as "bugs" but it can be difficult to actually isolate a bug when other factors such as mods, customisations are involved

Maybe i found another small issue;

on the forum_topics.asp, where the RSS feed link for a particular (sub)forum is build it reads
href=""RSS_topic_feed.asp?FID=" & strQsSID2 &

but i guess should be
href=""RSS_topic_feed.asp?FID=" & intForumID &
