on any blog post, when I click "show previous 50 comments" it does nothing. it doesn't even have a # sign in the url. or say javascriptvoid()0 or something.

@redfire77 when you hit the 50 previous comments button, does a LOADING icon appear directly above (and slightly to the left) of the 50 previous comments button?

@ian @redfire77 I have experienced this as well. But it does not happen all the time, though I haven't been able to produce it on demand. =/

@Ian I think it might have to do with the number of comments on a page. But its probably about not letting the page completely load, because I've experienced it mostly on my iPod. (and I couldn't spot any holes in the java-script 😋)

EDIT: haha, I didn't know there was a filter.

I'm also consistently running into this problem. I'm using firefox, and yes, I know my page has completely loaded. 😉 It's a bit annoying, but not too horrible since I can just go back to the normal blog read the previous comments.

I just realized Google Chrome on windows can do the 50 previous messages I just did it and it worked

@Ian I noticed that the button to see previous messages shows up even if there are less than 50 messages on the blog. I has screenies if you'd like to see them, as well. 😊

I've had no problems with this button since the dropdown problem on the livepulse page was fixed.
