My laptop is having problems so I am trying to post using my Kindle Fire. I can log in fine and browse the site fine. The problem is posting. Now I'm using the iPhone to post this. Getting smaller.....
I can start a new thread and add a title but cannot type anyhing into the body of the post. No keyboard pops up to type. The wierd thing is that the smileys, post icons and tags box work fine.
The Kindle Fire worked great with the old site layout. Ideas?
Try switching the theme in the bottom left corner. Try simple blue. See how that works. It is lacking some of the super flashy options but works better for mobile users.
On a PC clear your cookies and cache. Should fix it up with either style.
Thanks man. I didn't have to try this yet, because my laptop came back to life a few hours after it STB. I'm amazed really. Thought it was totally done.
I was sitting here all pissed watching my old DVD pornos on TV (sheeesh), thinking "I should have backed up this and that porn stuff" and the laptop fires up out of the blue. Literally without me even touching it, it restarted itself! It was a few hours between spontaneous shutdown and spontaneous restart. Yeah, weird. To me anyway. Post upcoming in General.
Perhaps it will turn into a zombie laptop soon. I'm prepared. I figure my PBR pint glass can destroy this thing pretty quick if it goes commando on my ass. [Tooth]
"Today's Birthays" has shown "Array" as having a birthday every day for at least a week. No one else has been shown.
Got another problem. PM is not letting me upload images. Add the URL, hit the ok button and nothing happens.
Running:
Mac OS X 10.6.8
Firefox 16.0.2
Thanks

Sounds like Firefox compatibility issues. I it can be fixed, J is the guy who can do it.
It can. Just got back in town now. Even I need a vacation from time to time.
Firefox interprets zindexes on divs differently than the others. I got all of the specific ones that were listed knocked out. Please be specific about which buttons are causing issues so I know where to look. There are a lot of them.
If anything is prohibitive to your use of the site, switch to the simple blue theme at the bottom left corner as a work on fixing them. It is set up in a way to maximize compatibility.
It looks like the smileys are not working for me. They do not show up in any of the editing windows or the smilie list.
Same set-up as usual.

Firefox
Do you get the smilie button at the top of the editor?
Yes but the window is empty.
Ok. Will check it out.
I can navigate pretty good in all modes on my Droid 2, but can't post. In full site mode, I get all the buttons and boxes for the quick and advanced replies, but the actual text field is one line tall and will not allow me to enter data. In mobile mode, I can hit reply and type a message, but when I hit the posting button, the screen refreshes and does not actually post. Perfectly willing to accept that it is user error on my end.
How about simple blue,
Still a pain for Blackberry. Freeze ups, double posts, phantom screens and sloooooooow, even with simple blue.
Can the "smiles". Be enlarged? Very difficult to see on a phone and very difficult to accurately tap on one.
Sorry for the delay. It's because I couldn't post a reply on my cellphone [/irony].
Anyways, simple blue didn't work for me either. I did press a bunch of buttons, though. I can press all the formatting buttons on the top of the reply box. I can insert smilies and links. Reply with quote auto-populates the text box with the quote. However, I cannot click in the text field and select or type any characters. It is probably good for everyone that I cannot instantly reply with my stream of consciousness on every thread. Having to wait until I get home and type stuff allows laziness to filter my natural excesses.
Getting a whole bunch of these today. Trying from Comcast, Qwest and VZW. Its intermittent.

Might be something wrong with the search function. Was trying to look up comments about a topic, and searched on M1A. No hits, even though there is one listed in the trading post with M1A in the title. Tried both upper and lower case for search.
Typically, search functions need a minimum of 4 characters in order to search against. We'll get J to check things out though.

I keep getting this now.
Any thing with the forum or is it on my end?
<p>
Any reports of WYSWIG editor problems with Chrome?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
I'm having all kinds of weird issues. formatting is wacky</p>
<p>
Enter shows a space, but doesnt insert any return</p>
<p>
Smiley panel on right side in advanced editor doesn't do anything. pop-up menu does.</p>
<p>
Spell check doesn't work - but that may just be Chrome.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
WinXP, Chrome Version 24.0.1312.52 m Same issue in my Win7 host You can also see that any punctuation in the original post or subsequent editing is slaughtered into code...</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
I changed the prefs from simple blue I was using - due to image upload button issues with Firefox - back to default and the same issue.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Simple editor is the culprit inserting the html paragraph break codes</p>
Followup, Spell check seems to work fine on other forms/forums, maybe it's just useless in java based forms?
Getting a "database error" page about every other time I try to load a page from the forums. Kept happening with the post whore thread to start, but then I realized it was happening for all ar-15.co domain addresses.
J, I sent you an email about it because I know you have better things to do than monitor the forums all day.
Same here, the site is fooked this morning.Quote:

Thanks for the speedy fix! I'll let ya know if I see it again.
Yup, issues are gone now. Nice work.
Hey I just got some errors trying to connect to ar-15.co. "google chrome cannot connect to ar-15.co" All other websites worked fine.
How I imagine you guys when this happens:

Yeah, that's pretty much it. Especially when I don't have work today! [LOL]
I was also having problems this morning,seems okay now. Thanks
Haven't seen any recent issues. Thanks J!
I noticed my post count is stuck at 63 ... Been that way for at least the last 4 posts ... I'm thinking much longer.
Z
Were they in the trading post? Posts there don't count.
Ahh HA! Bingo. [Coffee]
I have deleted a private message and it still pops up in notifications.
I have tried logging out of the site,clearing cookies and rebooting my system .
I'm running xp pro with service pack 3 on this machine and just updated java-could that be an issue?
Does it happen on more than one browser?
It just happens to the home page,just one browser (internet explorer 8 I believe).Just did a system restore and did not install the java update.
I'll keep you posted.
Well J I think the system restore fixed it.
Seems like there were some orphan files from the java update causing conflicts.(re installed java)
Thanks for your help [Beer]
