AI Thread Summary
Users experienced issues accessing PF pages in Internet Explorer 11, with reports of HTML parsing errors starting around 16:00 GMT. The problem seemed isolated to PF pages, while other sites remained functional. The situation resolved by Saturday at 10:45 GMT, likely due to a rollback of the web server to a previous version after user complaints. The discussion highlights the impact of server updates on page functionality in specific browsers. Overall, the issue was temporary and addressed by the site administrators.

Since about yesterday 16:00 GMT when i enter PF page via IE 11.0.9600.17420 the page seems messed up, like that the IE 11 cannot parse the html code correctly or i don't know what exactly. Maybe i changed some setting in IE and i didnt notice. I ve trouble writing this message as well. I hope you can help me out. Send me an email if possible with what is happening. Other pages i use to visit like for example wolfram seem ok, it just the PF pages that goes wrong.

Everything back to normal now, Saturday 10:45 GMT. I guess admins did some sort of rollback.
 
We updated the web server yesterday morning and rolled back to the old version after these types of reports.

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined'

This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
