Various parts of the site have been changed to reflect the new item mouse-over effect. This is going to be tweaked and changed, and moved around site-wide over the next few days.

Hopefully, you'll soon be able to gather all the data you need from an item by just hovering over it :)

Note: If you are having trouble getting this, or the new user-mouseovers to work, hold Ctrl on your keyboard, and press F5. This will reload the javascript libraries that were updated today :) If that doesn't work, clear ALL cache and temporary files - and it will defiantly reload.

PS: This is NOT SITEWIDE yet. At the moment this only works on select parts of the site, and is being extended over the next few days.

this won't have any effect on the item identifier, as the item you're shown is not the site-wide item (otherwise you could check the image url and get the answer!). and to all those saying it's not working in such-and-such place yet, the news states the effect will be site-wide "over the next few days" - be patient!

Just a bit of info STAFF ... it doesn't seem to be working at all on Opera according to my hubby.

Great new feature! ^^

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

oh and wanted to say I love this new feature...as it keeps people from asking the rarity of an item and keeps people from scamming others..

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

That's so great. It even works in FF =D

works for me in FF. nice feature

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Hmm perhaps there's something weird with your Firefox settings... I've never had trouble with trades or forums loading for me in Firefox, although I've heard others do.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Very cool!!

Nothing happens when I hover over items in Firefox. But than again both trades and subeta forums won't work for me in Firefox either.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I agreem VERY convienent, but what about the item up in the top? -just saw a super cool item and has no clue what it is- ;_;

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

It isn't working in galleries.. I just tested it in my gallery. I noticed earlier today it isn't working in recent trades either. Nor is it working in pet treasures either.. These are 3 places I would love to see it work in since that's where I mainly search item desc etc..

Great idea! Thanks. Oh and I'm not sure if anyone pointed it out yet, but "Official" is not spelled correctly.

You have to CTRL F5 refresh Alpes in FF in order for it to work properly.

I like this new feature very much! But I am a little concerned about it for the Item Identifier. But I think it's a great addition as well.

It works with Firefox, too! Yay! I used to see the item description when I moused over things in trades with IE, but it didn't work with Firefox. It seems to now, though. Thanks!

I use Firefox and I've got it working, what is it that's not working correctly for you Alpes?

Meh. It only works in Explorer for me, and not in Firefox which is my main browser.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Ooo NICE! I would absolutely love it if this feature was added to the items that appear in the upper right-hand corner of the page, and also to users' wishlists!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

The border is really big, but it's not annoying. Actually, it'll be helpful those mornings I can't quite wake up and can't see a darn thing. lol.

I personally believe that the text as the Item Name/Title or whatever is too large. That my only complaint, and just my opinion, though XD I love the concept, though. Brilliant!

I do agree with astrile, the text is a bit big tehe xD im guessing that'll be spiffed up a bit when its all working 100 percent and all that jazz yarr xD

keith - i dunno, maybe its just my browser xD the font is too big for the heading, and its kinda just a bit dodgy when i hover from one item to the next. it makes a clicky noise and they kinda flash as im hovering over them o_O lawl xD

Oh, this is a great feature! It's nice to see the description and rarity of an item before you buy it. Great idea!

Omg, this is pretty cool, except for ONE THING. I'd be mostly using it on cool items that randomly appear in the top-right of my screen, to find out what they are. But the hover box doesn't work there. XD Will it eventually work on those items?

It'd be nicer if we could disable it! The text is just too HUGE.

Is it possible for you guys to add the URL to the image in that box also, and make it not disappear when you hover away? XD That way, you can copy the code instead of having to click on properties and doing it that way.

Sorry if this is too demanding, I was curious. XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Ooooo. Tres fantastique! I never realized the French Fry's description was the exact thought I had when I first saw it.
