When viewing this new map: http://www.snarkpit.net/index.php?s=maps&map=3198

-And scrolling through each of the 10 images uploaded for it, after you've reached the 10th image and you try to load the next one (number one) or the one before last (number 9) it won't load them and shrink because it won't load any more images. Refreshing the page is the only supposed fix. smiley

Hitting the 'theme' button fixed it yesterday, but it came back today. The theme button fixed it again.
I'm guessing that maybe there's no default theme set, as part of the warning message is something about a config.php file not existing.


Yeah, the sp_green style referenced in the error msgs in the screenie you posted (thanks for that, helps a lot!) hasn't existed since last september so I'm a bit confused as to how it's still around in your browser's cookies!

There is a default theme set, but for some reason that value must have been getting retrieved from your browser's cookie and overriding it with a non-existent them. I've added some code to catch any more problems like that, so should be ok from now on.

I also believe this is the same issue Muhnay experienced when he was using Opera - I should have twigged from the error message but obviously didn't look closely enough, sorry! smiley

My last post was messed up, seems there is a problem with quote on quotes and possibly links involved.

Test:

Quoting quote2

Quoting quote1

test, link: Google

test, link: Yahoo

Spent a while improving the way nested quotes, missing quote tags etc are all handled. Should be more robust now smiley

Edit:


lol good grief, just checked that thread. No wonder the quotes parser was struggling smiley

Looks like theres a missing close tag in your post, which the new code handles without barfing on the output... the orphaned tag just doesn't get processed.

Ahh... you mis spelled a [/quote] tag as [/qoute] smiley

This is a message i'm getting loads of times, and when i click on something like "Home" it gives me that message again. The only thing i can do to cure it is to delete my cookies.

Is there a way we can make smileys work without having to be seperated from other characters by a space. For example:

Blah blah blah smiley.

That one always gets me and it looks silly to both get rid of the full stop all together and put a space inbetween the full stop and the smiley, plus putting the smiley after the full stop dosen't make sense either if there is another sentence after the full stop.

This should probably belong in the other thread (sorry Larchy and admins smiley ) but can we please have a preview feature for tutorials, I couldn't even see the latest tutorial I wrote until it was approved.

Edit: Ouch, text is way to hard to read!

When you login some unique bits of info are generated to identify you. One of these is based on your ip address, the rest are generated randomly by the server.

These bits of info are stored in a cookie in your browser, and in the database.

Each time you browse to a new page these bits of info are retrieved from your cookies and validated against the values stored in the database for your user account.

If the information does not match you get the "oops, there was a problem..." message.


I can't understand where in this process things are going wrong for you. If you login in one browser, login in a second browser and then go back to the first browser you'll get the message because the login in the second browser will have changed the info in the database... but if you aren't changing browser or changing IP I can't understand where the mismatch could be occurring. Possibly there could be a problem setting cookies on your browser, but I don't really see how this could be.

I can't replicate in FF3.0.10 (which is what you're using, you gave the .exe version), nor any other browser. Noone else has mentioned any issues, and the login system hasn't really changed significantly since last summer :/

Very sorry but I'm struggling to understand what is going on and so can't do anything to fix things unless you or someone else could suggest any other possible factors?

Well we already talked about it, and those error messages were probably because I logged in on my PSP too (just saying for others). But I can't remember i sent you the .exe file? smiley

I posted the above before we spoke, but I'm grateful for the clarification and glad the issue isn't actually a problem with the site.

You gave/provided the version of firefox.exe

I can't seem to change my avatar. I can enter my new avatar into the custom avatar box on the 'change avatar' page and it'll say 'update successful' after I hit the update button at the bottom but my old avatar will remain. I can swap to one of the cat avatars and it'll work, but when I try to upload the new avatar it'll say it was successful but the old custom avatar will return.

This is the pic I'm trying to get working:

It uploaded to my pit fine, which is nice smiley
I've tried three other avatars to no avail. I've cleared my cache to no effect.

This happens under both IE6 and Firefox 3.0.6

Press ctrl + F5 at the choose avatar section. (I learned this from Riven smiley)
