Anyone else having problems with using Redszone on a mobile device where touching anywhere on the page activates the link to the amazon.com ad? It seems like whenever I try to touch another link, I'm sent to amazon.com.

Yep, been having the same problem on my Droid. It usually does it to me when I am trying to access the next page of a thread.

Yes. The link area is so small you either have to be lucky or zoom way in. It seems like the amazon link is a background link for the entire page.

I'll look into it and see what I can find out. Thanks for letting me know.

I noticed for me it does it when i try to go to the next page. One thing i do is select the page number at the top of the posts and not the bottom ones. Still a pain but not as much as contantly going to amazon.

I've had the same Amazone issue others have mentioned on my iphone. However, I recently picked up the tapatalk app and the site runs like a dream on there.

I don't have a Droid (yet, anyway), so I can't test any changes I make, so you guys will have to help me out in that regard. Below is the section of our code that displays the Amazon link - I'm far from an expert on programming, but I don't see anything blatantly obvious that stands out that would cause this problem. Hopefully, someone more knowledgeable in this area sees what's causing the problem and can recommend a solution:

Boss, could you post the code for another add or two for the sake of comparison?

The other ads are built in to a custom addon we have installed, so it doesn't really display the code like with Amazon.

I removed the Amazon ad, so that should resolve this problem.

It must have been a Droid or iPhone thing, I read the site daily only Blackberry and never had an issue. Used the standard Blackberry browser, as well as Bolt for BB.

Thanks for removing the add. It works like a dream for me now.
