  • [OFF-TOPIC] Function "Findpost" (inside a forum link) not working on Chrome

I do not know where to post this question.
I noticed that for some time now, Chrome has not correctly redirected a forum topic with "FindPost". Ex: http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3485753
In the example above, the browser should automatically position itself in post #6 of this topic. But in Chrome, it's always getting in the first post.
However, in Internet Explorer, this is working correctly.
Could anyone tell me how to make it work in Chrome again?

Hi. This seems to be a Chrome issue.
I've converted to Firefox temporarily.
All the best.

I tried to open that link and got a Runtime error/ Server error in "/" Application.
 
Additionally-

Your right, I just noticed that too.
The ( . ) period.
 
Roger next time you open the find post link see if there is a period (.) at the very end of the link.
All good here but im using IE 11.

Excuse me all. The final point was entered incorrectly, but I've corrected the link.
Returning to the original problem, clicking on the link http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3485753 Chrome should position itself in post #6 but it is positioning itself in post #1 (although in IE this does not occur).
Does anyone know how to fix this in Chrome?

May be a bug, but I already updated Chrome to the last version and still the same problem...
