Having problems with site

[Dan]

Whenever I browse this site, it takes two or more clicks of the back button to navigate back to the previous page. Sometimes, it goes to a blank page and the only way I can go back is to use the drop-down arrow and select the page I want to navigate back to. Is anyone else having this problem?

 

I posted this yesterday, but the site gremlins must have been hungry because the post no longer exists.

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks.

yes I have been having similar problems. thought it was just my old computer getting tired of me.

Hmmm...sounds like you're losing connection to the site. Are you on dialup or broadband? What time of the day do you normally have this trouble? Did this happen just recently?

 

If the page doesn't load, you can click the reload page. That's probably easier than using your history pulldown.

It's happened over the last three days, at all times of the day. I have a high-speed connection and it's pretty reliable. Since it doesn't happen on any other sites I visit, I thought it may be something with this site. I'm running the latest IE. I just now looked at my the back button's drop-down button and see that each page is listed twice even though I just accessed the pages once each. I'll see if I can post a picture because I'm sure I confused you.

Hmmm....that is really strange. Its almost as if its reloading the page twice. I use Firefox and don't have that issue. Anybody else running the latest IE getting the duplicate history files?

 

As far as loading, I added the ebay banner at the bottom of the forum. Its javascript based. Do you think that's causing any problems? I think that's been up for a week or two, though.

Yes Travis, I've been having the same problem for several days. I'm running updated IE as well

[Travis]

Give this a try and see if it works for ya:

 

Open IE

Tools tab > Internet Options > restore Adanced Settings and Reset Internet Explorer settings.

Restart IE.

Travis,

 

I reset the settings and it didn't help. It only happens on this site that's why I don't think it's my computer. Were there any recent updates to the software on the site?

 

Dan

[Travis]

Nope...I added the bottom ebay banner, but that's all. Let me turn it off and lets see if you have better luck.

[ftwcat]

That has resolved the problem for me.

[Dan]

Yup, looks like the the eBay banner was the problem. Thanks.

I am on dial up and using aol, i know im really late on this topic, i have found that internet explorer works better then aol, and when on dial up and uploading pics to this forum, if the photo is a big size, it wont upload it and will go to a page not found,, then Travis suggested i use a program to rezise it to a smaller size, now i use fotosizer, makes a big photo into a smaller kb size.

 

One day i will get with the rest of the world and into the 21st century, and get high speed, but for now, i use the above way.
