Site problems?

Post by ninatoo » Tue Feb 12, 2008 1:08 pm

Hi all,

For the last few days I have been getting a lot of problems getting into the site. It times out and then it is okay, then when I go to post a message I get a blank page saying "Done" in the scroll bar. Is anyone else having problems?

It's been fine for me.

Maybe your internet history files need clearing out?

No problems at this end. It is probably your browser.

What to try is Ctrl & F5 together. This refreshes the page while bypassing the cache I think.

Another option is maybe to try and clear out your IE. Tools>Options and delete Temporary Internet Files and the history.

I have too Nina. Yesterday I had to try about 6 times before it accepted my post. I kept being logged out. I just persevered till it worked.
It happened last week too.

I've had no problems getting on the site, but it's veen very slow for a while now. When I make a post, it takes forever to move and when it eventually does move, it says there's nothing there (when it is). Yesterday, one of my posts was duplicated and I know I only clicked "send" once. Go figure :!:

Regards,
Anne H

The site has been running slow for me for the past week. Each time I make a post it shows up three times and I have to delete two of them.
