Default Staples ad breaking forum on iPhone

Hey,

There's a Staples ad that has rollover functionality, and it overrides any functionality for the site itself. When this ad is loaded on the page, I can't click on any of the buttons. Can't post, edit, login, etc. Anything that requires clicking a framework-provided button doesn't work. Have to reload the page until you get a different ad if you want to post anything.

Sounds like the ad's Javascript. Screen shot it if you can and send it to Bingo, he deals with the ad company.

Same problems here on my iPad. Almost put my finger through the thing trying to click on links. Glad it isn't just me!

ya, I started the other thread not knowing this one was up. It's even screwing up my comp at work here. It just seems like it's bogging everything down. The roll over always seems to pop up and at times the People's add takes over the screen too.

Site hasn't worked on my android for the last 2 days. If you catch the screen mid load you can click on a forum or thread but once the page loads the touch screen doesn't function.

I'm getting the Staples ad almost constantly today, making the forum unusable. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

It looks like that Gem by Carati ad is doing the same thing to my phone now. Anyone else have this issue?

Another rollover ad that just began appearing today. Virtually impossible to avoid if I want to use the side bar to scroll through the page.
