1. The & in the title tag on the main page should be & :D

2. For some reason Konqueror keeps refreshing the main page when I enter it. Haven't debugged it yet, but it might have to do with the identifier-url meta tag, haven't seen that one anywhere else before..

Update: it's the function global_dst_check in ipb_global.js. The try fails, so dst is always 0 and Konqueror enters an endless loop. Just noticed that it loops between two pages, one showing 12:34pm and the other 1:34pm (example).

Ok, this would be a bug in IBP itself. Whomever reports this, add this note/tip:

Don't allow users to select CET as timezone and then use Javascript to adjust for daylight savings, let the user select a named region (e.g. Europe/Berlin) from timezone_abbreviations_list and let PHP handle daylight savings. Attached are a function to filter the enormous list (and optionally return them as key/value pairs useful for a select option, as well as a huge compatibility function for PHP < 5.2.

I'm glad for some reason this doesn't happen on other pages, so I see times here as if it were winter. But I'm not complaining, it beats being redirected continuously as soon as a page finishes loading. :D

I think that the redirect problem has been fixed in the latest upgrade to IPB.
