It does work if you right click and open it as a new tab. Also I found double clicking it sometimes works.

Just a quick question that needs only one response. In the attachment, you can see two reps that I got. In order from top to bottom, please verify the colours of the boxes to the left of the reps. Thanks!

* Yes, this is some new evil scheme.

The top appears red, the bottom green.

top red, bottom green

Thank you both; I just want to confirm what I was seeing.

It's good to see that Inziladun and Estelyn have confirmed alatar's comment to me, that there is indeed a red rep there. I was suspecting the old boy had fallen prey to Deuteranopia.

Instead, it appears that my attempt to give al a positive rep fell upon a hard time, if not a wrong button.

Could some kindly Admin type Downer please repair the frightful damage done to alatar's rep by replacing the red rep button with a green one and adding the lost point to his rep count? I'm sure he will be relieved and obliged if this could be done, to say nothing of the public scourgings that he has prepared for me.

Thanking the Admins kindly. I will forthwith make an appointment to correct my occularly challenged sight.

Admins - there is no need to take any action. I will cherish this red rep for as long as it lasts as it will always remind me of Bethberry's red face.

You're assuming a bit much, as it's an easy mistake to make in a hurry. Why, I have a neg rep from an Admin--only it's blue/grey on my monitor--which I assume is a mistake because the comment that came with it is positive. It's no big deal.

What is interesting, though, is the fact that you gloat over someone's assumed discomfort or embarassment, especially when it arose over a generous attempt to publicly acknowledge a good post of yours.
