Technical Forum Question

narcnh · Mar 13, 2004

Hope someone can help me with this one.

It used to be that, after viewing a post, when I went back to the main page for that forum and refreshed, that post no longer appeared as unread (status changed to 'read'). All of a sudden, the posts don't change anymore. In any forum. I have to use the 'Mark all read' feature to change their status. This is a pain, because it's hard to keep track of what's really been read and what's had a new post, since the last time I looked. I didn't change anthing on my computer settings.

Anybody have any ideas?

Mine does that sometimes and if I logout and log back in everything is restored.

BTW, I had to reply to my post, because, when I tried to reply to yours it gave me a blank winodw. Go figure.

Now that's weird. I just tried it to see what would happen and all I got was the blank window, too. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I got the same thing. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Maybe it's a Comcast thing? /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Me, too! That is weird. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I wouldn't have thought so, Ron, but can't say it would surprise me. I see JWE and I both have Comcast, and the slowest loading page I ever look at is my Comcast homepage. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

BTW -- The source for the page I get looks like this:

 <html><body></body></html> 

Perfectly acceptable HTML, but a little sparse. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I was just kidding since I know we both have the same ISP. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Here's the source I get.

And I tried to edit it. The text window is blank. I tried to paste in the original text, but it came back with a message that all the required fields weren't filled in.

Better leave this one for the big guys... /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
