Thanks again.  Refreshing the page that the forum is embedded in sometimes works but not always.

For me it always did when I remembered the right option - or that's how I remember it. As I say, for me it was rare enough not to be a worry and always seemed to work after a second attempt.

As to using the forum refresh option, this does not show at topic level; there's no refresh link/button.  I've also contacted the web-editor people about this issue, so I'll find out what they've said next.

The only time I do not see the Refresh link is when the forum is not embedded. It is possible to break out of embedding if you have the Embedding Option set to " Allow users to view this forum without embedding." I am sometimes forced to do this in order to see the full "Change Permissions" table. (On that forum I have around 20 User Groups) and it is embedded in a site with a fixed 960px width.

Worst case scenario might be to allow jumping out of embedding.

Right, they've suggested to me that there might be some forum setting that's causing the issue, well I can't find what it could be...

Again, I have to say I have no solution and know of no setting to fix this. I wonder if the Refresh option is failing for you because of browser cacheing. I know that sometimes simply hitting the Refresh toolbar button or F5 only re-fetches the cached page, and I need to hold CTRL as well for it to work. There are some reports on the forum suggesting particular problems with Safari. Gary has had certain problems with Chrome that do not occur in Firefox. It remains a mystery for me.

Anyway, this is what's in the code-container/box so far:

<script type="text/javascript"> nabble_width = "1470px"; nabble_scroll_top = true; nabble_ignore_title = true; </script>talk-IT forum
<script src="http://talk-it.549.s1.nabble.com/embed/f1"></script>

Nothing in that jumps out at me as faulty.

Is there any additional style or something that I should be adding that might solve this problem?  Otherwise I can't really proceed 'going live' with the forum which is a bit of a downer, as I was 'this far' from doing the final finishing touches.

I'm afraid I remain as foxed by this as you.
