Google Chrome 64bit (up to date) on Win10 64bit (up to date)
 
 
#1: GO TO TOP OF PAGE arrow icon inactive. This button does not react to a mouse click:
 

 
#2: GO TO FIRST UNREAD POST only 'half' working. Clicking the icon takes me to the top of whichever page has the first unread post on it, but not to the actual post itself:
 

 
 
 
So far I've tried reinstalling Chrome but both problems remain.
 
In Firefox, the To The Top icon works, but the Go to First Unread Post behaves the same as in Chrome.
 
In IE11, the To The Top icon works, and the Go to First Unread Post also works.
 
 
 
As always, any help/advise greatly appreciated

Take a day off and go for a walk in the sun?  Oh wait, you're in England...  Scratch that.  Right.  Well, it looks like this place was designed with inferiour (u added) browsers in mind.  Those features don't work for me (using Chrome) any more either...

To add, I found another problem in Chrome that works as it should in both IE11 and Firefox:
 
 
#3: QUOTE POST only 'half' works. Clicking the icon enters the quoted post into the Quick Reply window at the bottom of the forum page, but the page itself doesn't automatically then scroll down to that window:

Thanks mate - are you experiencing problem #3 as well?

Yep - very annoying!  I haven't been able to go to the first unread post, last post of a topic (months) or have the screen scroll to the quote area (fairly new - a week maybe?).

That 'go to first unread post' thing doesn't even exist using Edge. In fact, I can't remember ever having used it in all the years I've been here.

Also (in Chrome) - #4 (related to #2 above?) -inserting a link to a specific post just takes one to the top of the page that post is on too, not to the post itself.

I blame Gibson.

It's not his fault, he's cleaned up his act, and Blood Father wasn't too bad at all.

How odd, I see it (and it works) in Edge mate:
