The buttons on the left under Quick Browse (Major, Japan, Indie, Defunct) aren't working for me in Firefox or Chrome, but that's not a huge deal. Browse Themes at the top is working fine. Thanks for getting the page working again! :D

Just to update everyone...
The reason for these features not currently working, also the reason behind why the site stopped working is to do with AJAX.
It seems as though Google updated their AJAX code which conflicted/messed up the way the site worked, so therefore all the features which relies on AJAX stopped (bar a few).
TerranRich has managed to change this to get the site stable so it's accessable but the couple of features for now will remain unusable for now (Shoutbox, Left Menu and maybe something I aint noticed).
This is not such a big deal and just glad the site is back, let's not pesture Terran into trying to fix this as I am sure he has alot on his hands anyway.

I had the same issues within the last month or so with Google updating everything in their coding library. My site utilizes AJAX for the handling purposes, but mainly uses the new jQuery release as well for functionality on the front-end.

Grumpy, there is also a new addition to the multitude of AJAX scripts out there that let you use an mysql database to solve issues like this and have individual pages/content be called, through the use of iframes, that come from the db entries. If you want to see a demo, PM me and I will send you a link to it.

I'm almost certain it'd help not to embed the framework externally. This change messed up a lot of sites recently.

It's not embedded internally. I know how it's setup on here and there is only a few things internally, but the rest is done externally.

Chat has stopped working today and so has the theme tabs so to access the theme sections we have to now get em from the top bar themes section instead of from the left side bar.

Yeah, it's a legit problem with the main site and it's attacked the fox as well now so 3 of the main browsers have the same problem.

Guess Opera has it as well now probably in that case all browsers the problem exists for.

TEOL, the main issue is within the context of the new jquery/ajax api released about 2 weeks ago. The new jquery code takes over the AJAX content loader framework. I fixed this issue on my own website as well and it's something that has to be carefully looked at and be modified to accomodate.

Hi,
I still cannot access correctly to the main site.
As you can see above, sometimes my browser shows the message "Internet Explorer cannot open the website... Operation canceled" and sometimes doesn't. When doesn't show the message, all the buttons on the left and the ones at the top don't work.

Internet Explorer no longer supports the newer editions of AJAX or jQuery anymore. Use Firefox because it has unlimited potential for use of jQuery and AJAX. The main page is fixed as far as positioning goes now along with the top menu fully functional, but the side menu has an update that I think is being worked on at this moment.
