I find that when you are reading RSS feeds in Safari then two finger scrolling on the trackpad is almost zero if you are moving the page slowly. I mean you scroll your fingers a little to make the page little up or down but nothing happens. However, if you do a fast scroll then there are no problems, normal web pages in Safari also don't have any problem. Anyone else having this issue?

Are you sure you're scrolling over the correct frame? The sidebar on the right is a separate frame on the page, so scrolling over that part of the page won't do anything.

Actually, the sidebar on the right is part of the same frame. The blue title across the top, on the other hand, appears to be a separate frame.

That said, the scrolling works perfectly normally here...

Are you using iScroll2 with your powerbook? Is it working now? I haven't tried it since installing Tiger. Don't want to futz with TOO much at once.

I've been using it since I installed Tiger and I'm not even using the latest version of iScroll2.

Well, wherever I scroll, main part of the page or on the right side the result is same. By the way I think there is one top frame as Brad mentioned and there is frame at the right as torifile mentioned, so I think you both are right. I might be wrong though

What's on the right looks a LOT more like its a DIV with the CSS property "position:fixed" than it does a frame. If it is a separate frame, why would the left frame's scroll bar be in it? Why would scrolling in the right frame move the left frame?

Are you using iScroll2 or built-in scrolling or something else?
