Posting error messages

Post by Bridon »

Is it just me or is anyone else getting posting problems?....more often than not when I reply to a message or compile a new one, on posting it often comes up with a 'Page cannot be displayed' message and hitting the back button to try again and the message has gone and has to be written again. :cry:

I now copy the message in case it vanishes again and after a couple of attempts I can post normally. My connection is BT BroadBand with a fast connection and this happens 4 out of 5 postings lately... is there a setting than can be done?

Are you using Internet Explorer as I think I had the same issue before switching to Chrome?

I suspect he started with Google Chrome. Must be to do with the table layouts or something - if you switch to Chrome for ISM you should have no problems :th:

It seems to be ok again now...could be localised net congestion coinciding with my postings...if it happens again then I'll have to have a look at Chrome I guess... ;)

I haven't used IE in years. haha. I switch back and forth between Firefox and Chrome. I don't allow ads of any kind to be displayed on my machine so some sites work on one or the other browser.
Once in a while I'll get a 505 error, but that has nothing to do with the site.

I have never had that problem but down in my part Dorset broadband does have frequent go slows where you can't do anything very quickly. I am fortunate to be in a spot where I can now update to high speed fibre optic broadband. I have gone ahead and organized for that update to happen next week, I will let you know how I get on.

Dave, I've had fibre op for a few months now and I can say that I've never seen anything like it.
Slow downs don't exist here at all and my connection speed is about 60% faster than it was, and it was the fastest DSL that could be had here.
Fibre op rocks!

Sounds like a 'Dorset' curse I am experiencing....absolutely no sign of fibre optic over here as yet...little bit behind here I'm afraid, I hear that some people are still pointing at cars...!! :shock:
