I don't like Tapatalk. I can't "Like" posts on Tapatalk (or can't figure out how to) and I'm all about the "Like" button... LOL
Tapacrap does take some time getting used to but once you do it's a viable alternative... and way better than viewing on a mobile browser... its to the point with me I'll use the computer or my phone, not so much a preference thing, more a which ever is closer thing.

Btw, I "liked" your post using tapatalk... but there has been some updates recently... check it out

Just wondering if anyone is still having issues with ECF displaying on their cell phone. I don't use Tapetalk. Shouldn't have to use it for sole purpose of viewing ECF on my phone when all other websites displays correctly. My browser worked and looked great ...until they did something with JAVA script - which now shows a menu (on left side) that won't go away. (first page)

I've emailed many people on ECF trying to resolve the issue, but no one has emailed me back.

I use a Galaxy S3 phone and noticed that crazy tab version of ecf a couple weeks ago. Just like the screen shot that was posted.

My remedy was scroll down and choose "full site", after it loads click "settings" up at the top. At lower left of setting page you can choose skin.
When I set it to "default mobile style" it went back to the old mobile version
that I'm familiar with. No more tabs cluttering up my screen.

Mine seems to keep me logged in np

I'm on the phone now. Can see "Full Site", but when I click on it... it takes me to the page of ECF advertising. The over-laping menu on the left of the screen overrides anything I touch. It's just an unnecessary java script that's not needed by the website guys. The menu should really go away, but doesn't.

I do have the most current update on my phone.

I just tried the same with my phone. After applying "Full Site", the phone switches to the standard IE page with a very small, unreadable font size. I need to turn the phone sideways to be able to read. Aside from that, "Full Site" works perfectly.

Can you get to your settings page? It might show you where to change skins. It might be set up to show away from your menu bar on the left.

No. Don't see it Karen. I'm gonna take more pictures and maybe make a video of it later on. Things still look the same as the picture in post #1

I just got a HTC Desire 510 phone. Pulled up ECF and got the same thing with the tabs on the left of the screen.

I went down all the way to the bottom and choose Full Site. It loaded up great and the tabs were gone!

Hope you figured yours out!
