I have not seen this happening every 10 seconds, but it's bad enough that the banner or site notice arrives 10 seconds after the first load, and jerks the page around. It should be possible to allow a fixed size space for the banner, and allow it to be delayed without jerking. This includes the rearrangement of the menu to the left, and extra tabs. -- Lars Aronsson ([email protected]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
