I have no problems with it either. Are you sure you installed properly?

If you have installed a theme other than one of the two standard Mozilla themes It is possible that you have hit a bug in the theme.

Isn't that difficult to install it .

The other problem is that if i use tab to switch between links, it skips the right one.

And also, with images turned off, it doesn't display alt text.

Anyway, at home i'll try to reinstall it.

Cannot see new thread button?
It's also possible that you disabled the cookies. If you disable the cookies, you cannot log on to this site and you cannot see the new thread button.
Check whether you disabled the cookies.

So far, i have saved the page that was in the disk cache ( without the new thread buttton nor alternate text ).

I opened it with:

links 2 ( graphic mode ): there isn't an alternate text, but i can reach it ( there is a square that acts as a link ). Oh yes i tried with images disabled.

Mozilla Firebird 0.6: there is the alternate text "Post New Thread" ( strange ).

Mozilla 1.4: there is nothing, but i have found it with the mouse .

With ctrl+i ( informations ) i see Post New Thread ( anchor ), but it's not displayed.

But i tried also to start apache and i put another forum page ( from another forum this time ) with a similar problem: when i turn off the images, i can't see some links.

In fact if i toggle the images ( block images from this site ) seems that also the alternate text ( sometimes it contains the link to another page ) is toggled.

A bug? ( anyway i'll try to look better at it )
