an interesting problem about half the members that i have spoken to tonight are unable to load the forum at all.
normally i would think its a problem with thier computer as some users are not having trouble at all but it seems strange that such a large number of ppl would have exactly the same problem at the same time. all they get is a white scrren with some sort of black box on the top somewhere.
personally i am having no troubles with it and there are still active users at the moment so i dont really kow what to do. any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. the link to my forum is in my sig.
i inquired about browers and there seems to be no link. i dont ask about os but i think most of them are running xp. the small vertical black line in the top left corner i also have in the same place when i load the page too but it seems to just push the eniter page down this much. i have never noticed it before now. several members with problems mentioned this but when i asked another about it they said no its just blank. i have no idea what a trace route is so i cant really ask them to do it. we also tried clearing out the cookies and what not too with no success. i am yet to find a pattern in those who can and cannot load it.
ill ask them next time theyre online. i have also had reported troubles of people using ie as well so im not sure if the extensions are the problem. i have also just noticed this small black line at the top of this forum's pages too.
i just tried to post the source code of the page as i see it for what its worth but i got the following error:
just to clarify "error '80004005' /post_info.asp, line 81" is the error i got on this forum when i pasted the source code into the msg box and tried to post it, not the error they get on my forum. ill check with them and see if its fixed tho and get back to you.
ok ive been told that its working again now so hopefully its all good. thank you for your swift attention.
is it easy to explain what was wrong cos it seems a little strange and im kinda curious? if its too much of a hassle dont worry i can understand if ur busy. thank you again
