Facebook?

How about a button on the post page for inclusion rather than the annoying popup.
There must be way that's better than A bloomin' popup, if you check the box THEN have it but those of us who are not 'Connected' don't see it.
We all have some sort of popup blocker because we don't like them.

I see to many privacy issues with it, plus I only went on there to keep in touch with my brother in law and now he hardly ever uses it. Still, my point is do we need a window popping open every time we post to the forum? There must be a less annoying way of allowing users of FB to interact with it. I know a lot of people use and love it, sadly, i'm not one of them and the popup - I can't say it annoys me - niggles a bit. It's the only thing about this site that does.
Bob and the crew do a fab job with the website and this issue is the only thing i dislike.
Moan over,
Druid

P.S. Happy birthday Bob!

Scroll all the way to the bottom of this page and look through the related threads list that the server provides. There is a way to get rid of the pop-up discussed in one of them, as I remember.

Thank's Claud, I read all the posts and I logged out and back in, checked user CP and nothing in there. I still have the pop up. I suspended my FB some weeks ago as i want no more to do with it.
It looks like i have to put up with it Unless some one else has an answer?

I'm on Fifefox By the way

Two suggestions:
1) delete everything in your firefox cache; delete all cookies; quit FF. Re-boot computer.

2) If that doesn't work, try deleting firefox, then downloading a new copy and install.

Cheers Claude,
I just thought it was related to THIS site as FB is an option on here.

I'll live with it.
