Thats great Todd.
I use my I Phone to read the posts and I did post a message or 2 from mine but I am having problems now that I'm trying to figure out how to fix. Probably something simple. When I connect to the screen you see on the I Phone I tap go to home page and it takes me to what I see on my home computer. I tap forums or anything else and it directs me back to the I phone screen. I cant read the posts, post anything, or see anything on the normal screen I used to get. Maybe I have to do something in my phone control panel.

Thanks for all the hard work and congrats on your connection to Apple now!!!

 

 Good Luck,

Blackie.

Be sure you did not disable cookies on the iPhone.

Good luck!

The only time it re-directs back to the iPhone Edition of Lottery Post is if it cannot set a cookie.  Be sure you are going to the main Lottery Post site by touching the "Go to main site" link, and not trying to go directly.

Also, if you previously had cookies disabled (you should never be running with cookies disabled (on iPhone or regular PC), then maybe you should go ahead and clear out the cache and old cookies (if there are some).

I can't test it myself at the moment, but I will do so later today.  Just yesterday it was working fine, and I haven't changed anything, which is why I think it's something on your side.  But who knows!  I'll report back here later when I can test it myself.

Good luck!

Congratulations Todd.  I will also look into upgrading so that I can get connected. If you don't see the lottery results on TV, here in Maryland, it is so hard to reach the lottery line on the phone. It amazes me because that line could be busy for an hour or more or sometimes not have the results until it's near the time for the next draw.

I've told friends,"I can call the Florida lottery line and get connected here in Maryland, long before I can get into the Maryland's line. It can be frustrating.

Don't forget, Lottery Post also has a regular mobile site for people who want lottery results from a regular cell phone with a built-in browser (most cell phones have that feature these days).

If you point your cell phone's web browser to www.lotterypost.com, it will automatically show you the mobile site.

Good luck!

OK, I just got a chance to test, and you're right, there's a problem there.  I'll see if I can find out what's going on.

Good luck!
