PHPRunner General questions
E electromotive author PHPR 5.2(4890) I have situation (similar to that reported years ago), that in many circumstances the AJAX detail previews are preventing clicking on the links (popup covers the links). http://www.asprunner.com/forums/topic/13670-changing-positioning-and-delay-display-times-for-ajax-previews/pagehlajax%20previewfromsearch1 This depends on several factors, but mostly browser, screen/window/font size, popup size and window aspect. It's a race to try and click the link before the AJAX popup appears, often taking several attempts. I see the work-around posted previously, thanks. I have searched for newer solutions, but a permanent solution to this issue is requested. Workaround in 5.2, in the file include/ajaxsuggest.js, search for: Left_Top(preview);});},200); I changed the 200 (millisecond delay) to 500 or something longer. I haven't fully tested this in all situations, browsers, screen sizes, aspects, etc., but it appears to work in preliminary testing. This needs to be repeated after every build, unless the source file in the program files folder is changed (presumably search for 200, but I haven't tried it).

Thank you Rick for bringing this point up again. I get complaints from my customers about this often. Sergey, would it be possible to position the popup just a bit below the link so that the link is still click-able?
