Tenaj glad you liked it. Yea i found it by accident one day you can also access it from the tool bar by clicking settings but that takes a little bit longer.

On this PC I'm on AOL and Comcast high speed so any features i can find to speed up things i look for. Aol has a plug-in for broadband and high seed Internet depending on whichever access you tag along with.

When i switch to Internet explorer i have all the tool bars for different IP's we use it's kinda neat but mostly my kids use tha... [ More ]

Yes thats true about cookies i don't delete them every time maybe once a month. Mainly because i haven't figured out how to isolate the sites i visit that use different passwords and logins. When i delete my cookies i have to go through the login screen names and passwords for every site that uses them all over again.

Since AOL comes with McAfee security center and it's own spy ware i let it run and if it's dangerous it automatically blocks it.

My next PC will have Vista can't wait. Buyin... [ More ]

Good tip f4m.

The Opera web browser has a nice Delete private data... menu option that can be used to quickly delete what you want to. I wish all the browsers has a simple, plain-spoken option like that.

However, I think many people make the mistake of deleting too much. It's like those spyware programs that delete every last tracking cookie and report them as danger! Leaving cookies on the computer is probably a better option for most people, unless you share the PC. Even then usi... [ More ]

That's is just too cool. Other IPs should step up to the plate. But you know many times we have stuff and dont' know it.

It's a wonderful tool Todd. I wish I had learned about it sooner.

Hey Janet, it can set up RSS feeds too, but that's not what was asked.

You still can clear cookies with it on any website.

Todd — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 01:48:21 GMT

That's a browser feature, not a web site feature. What was asked is not possible.

Actually Foxfire browser has a similiar idea in place. It has a plugin where you can clear your cookies and other cookie functions like view, delete, add, etc. on a webpage.

Just one of the features is - when you view any webpage and if it's an error on that page it will show it and take you directly to where it is. The line in CSS. You can view all ID information including images etc. and a slew of other tools. It is awesome.

Hey Todd!

I just had an idea... How about a link somewhere on LP that says, Clear My Cache that automatically clears the cache.

I am having the same results. I dumped my cache, but it did not make a difference. I just posted on page 4 of my thread and when the page refreshed it came back up on the 1st page of the thread, not the 4th. The new post went to the proper spot though.

It's also very hard to implement a rich text editor in a forum, because people paste anything and everything, and you somehow have to deal with that. It is very difficult coding. I think that's a big reason why many forums cheap out and don't put one in there.

I never appreciated a Rich Text Editor or WYSIWYG until I installed a wonderful everything you need forum component for my site and later discovered that it uses bbcode - ONLY. The creator of this wonderful everybody been waiting for - no bridge, even look good component stated that people don't need pretty pictures, tables and colors etc. and that he hated WYSIWYG with a passion- they just need to post what they need to say and move on. He said it was for security reasons. I was like WTF. S... [ More ]

Thanks rteague and Raven... I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing this... at least I know it's not my config...! I clear my cache just about every day, so I was surprised to see it keep happening. Anyway, it went away just a abruptly as it showed up! lol

Calabs,

I've been seeing the same behavior: If you look at the address bar you'll see:

https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/xxxxxx/0

Instead of:

https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/xxxxxx/yyyyyy

Regards,

Todd — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 16:23:15 GMT

I haven't changed anything regarding that feature, so it was probably old code left in your browser cache.

that has happened to me a few times as well...noticed it but really didn't think nothing of it

OK, now the problems is not occuring!! I just tested a post in the Miss Kitty thread (which is where I was having the problem every time I posted there). Now it's going to my most recent post. The only warning I had when I first check the browser was it recommended going full page. I did that, and the problem is not happening now. Could that have been the issue

The diagnostic test looks good ( I just sent it to you)...

That's the first I'm hearing of that. I've not experienced it myself. Did you try a browser test

Thanks Todd.... I have noticed that lately after posting n a thread, the post goes through, but the page goes to the beginning of the thread.... any reason why that's happening

Sorry about that

Todd — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:44:10 GMT

I was upgrading the rich text editor to the latest stable release, so things got glitchy around here for about 20 minutes.

As always, if you have any problems after I upgrade something clear your web cache and you'll be good to go.
