Hi,

This is more of a vBulliten Bug but If you're paying for it I figure you need to know about it to get it fixed.

the session id that is kept in the url, tracked via the s= variable gets chewed on.

When you return to the "MacNN Forums" using the Navigation breadcrumbs in the top-right it reports the url as http://forums.macnn.com/index.php?s=Array%5Bsessionhash%5D

when it should be returning something like: http://forums.macnn.com/index.php?s=de68ffc20c752818aa5de8b3e49df60

It seems like someone forgot to put the <? ?> around the Array[sessionhash] this may or may not want to be worked on

It seems to work for me when I use the breadcrumb navigation...

i took a screenshot to show all three elements in action

In the address bar you will notice that s has a value.

on the right hand side my mouse pointer is currently hovering over the MacNN Forums link

In the status bar on the bottom of the browser the Array[sessionhash] is being displayed.

Hope this helps in some way

Strange, I don't get that and I'm using the same browser and stuff. I'll look into it though, since something is obviously awry.
