odd change to web page title...

Just looked at my browsing history to go back several pages and having clicked on a new post in a thread I was on, saw the page title had been set to #25522643#25522643 (ie no mention of Mumsnet, nor the actual thread title).

Looks like the Tech staff need to fix something, somewhere...

That's intriguing. Can you tell us the URL of the page you were on?

It looks like this is a known bug in IE. It occurs whenever a Flash object loads, so on some Talk pages it won't happen but on others you might see it appear three times or more. You can also see this effect on Adobe's site.

Unfortunately, the only workaround for this is to embed something in every Flash file on the page. As nearly all of our Flash content is external (YouTube videos, advertisements) there's no way we could do that for Mumsnet.

I don't know if IE 9 is affected by this, I only tested up to version 8.
