Hi DM,ããI've had a couple people mention to me an issue with my message reader when
they try to up/downvote with it, and the line where it's reporting an issue is calling get_all_msg_headers() with a MsgBase object:ããvar tmpHdrs = msgbase.get_all_msg_headers();ããThis is the error they're seeing:ã!JavaScript ../xtrn/DDMsgReader/DDMsgReader.js line 14211: Error: index read
(10710) failedããDo you know what might cause that error when calling MsgBase's get_all_msg_headers() method?ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

Calling any JS MsgBase method thatãread from the index file before calling the get_all_msg_headers() method wouldãcause the error.

Calling get_msg_headers() right after opening the messagebase didãnot cause any error for me, nor should it have (the file pointer would be atãthe beginning the file by default).
