Some bug fixes and tweaks:

- album security tweak (thanks Jagman for pointing that out)

- bug fix to member list, when you select a specific security level of members to list and go through the pages, it no longer reverts to all security levels

- bug fix to MMR system (regional editors only), when editing a Major Mining Region, the mineral/product list is now correct (previously some stray ones would make their way in)

- CSS tweak fixed causing images wider than normal to be bumped down the page in Internet Explorer 6

I'm sorry to bother you, but it seems there is another bug- in the photo rating for this month- there appears to be two ratings with the same (incomplete) message, which I would guess come from the same user. I thought it was based on unique votes, is this an error?

Also, on the all time greatest photo, there are two ratings from the same person (Both in different languages, neither English! :thumbdown: ) Don't get me wrong the photo is fantastic, I've just spotted these errors. Sorry to be a nuisance.

Also noticed txt speak coming across on the photo ratings. How chavvy. 😮 innit m8, sl8 mines! :o

erm.. well the incomplete message was when I pressed enter by accident twice whilst writing "very nice".

Hi TomAudit

Thanks for those points, I've checked them out, but they're not bugs as such...

In the case of the two 'ver y' votes, I suspect what happened was the voter clicked the button twice, this sometimes happens if (for whatever reason) there's a bit of a lag between clicking and the page reloading (slow internet connection etc). I've deleted them now as the text didn't make sense.

The other two votes on the same photo are from different users (the user id is saved against the vote, or 0 is saved for guests/non logged in users).

You'll sometimes find that votes on the same photo come in batches; I can only conclude that this is because the act of somebody voting on a photo brings it to the attention of other members. So sometimes you'll get a rush of votes on the same photo, or two votes in quick sucession which might look iffy, but is actually quite legitimate. I do however remove votes from time to time that have clearly been cast to give a photo a false position; and it's not possible to vote on your own photos.

On the top rated photo, yes there seem to be two from the same person. The script is based on unique votes, so I guess even counting those 2 as 1 unique vote that photo has still got more than any other vote in the database... The fact that it's one of mine has nothing to do with it... d'ya hear 😉

:tongue: No worries, I just wondered how it would occur. :flowers:
