Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Odd bug when adding components

Ess2012   October 22nd, 2012 8:05a.m.

During a Skritter session, when I click on a component to add it to my list the definition/components window appears but is greyed out. (This also occurs when clicking "Study list" when I want to add a list.)

If I click anywhere on the screen, the window disappears without registering any action (e.g. adding the component to the list.)

I've discovered that the greyed out area only covers the area of the window that was visible on the screen at the time I clicked the button. So If I make the window very small, click a component, then make the window full screen, the window will have a greyed out area in the top left but the buttons will not be greyed out and still work.

What's going on?

Thanks,
Ess

Hi Ess--this sounds like a strange bug. Which browser is this? Can you try it in a different browser and let me know if you see the same problem? Also, sending a screenshot to nick@skritter.com would help.
