Redirects

[ianders1]

Liudas,

I was wondering why about every 3rd time I go tohttp://www.silverfast.com/forum/ I get redirected to: http://www.lasersoft-imaging.com/forum/

This throws off the cookies that phpBB uses to show which posts are new. If this is for load balancing, I understand, but it must really confuse the less-technical users of this site, and it kind of takes away from the usefullness of this phpBB feature.

It's not a big deal, but I just wanted to bring it to your attention in case you were unaware of the problem.

Thanks,

Ian

I experience the same problem on one machine and not on others (not sure why the difference). Likewise I'm having really terrible time with script errors on the front page when using IE 6 (PC windows) but have NO problems with the same page on Mac OS 9 or X. Normally its the Mac that falls over when scripts are messed up.

Ian,

That's odd that you're having script errors with IE6 on Windows. I use several Windows machines (98,ME,NT,2k,XP) with IE 6 and have not had any scripting errors. I'm not sure if you mean the Silverfast Home Page or the Forum Home Page. Sometimes website admins will have PHP's error reporting set too high giving lots of errors printed on the screen but Liudas has this set correctly. Surprisingly, everything looks fine in Netscape 6.2 as well.

You might want to go into IE, Tools>Internet Options and look under the Advanced Tab. Make sure that Disable Script Debugging is checked under the Browsing Section. This might be your problem.

I guess I just really like the cookie feature and wish that it didn't redirect users, which screws it up.

Ian and Ian,

redirects: I'll take a look, apache configuration may be not in order.

JS errors: really strange, because most of testing I do on Win (mostly XP) machines and they give least errors, or so to say unexpected behaviour. Over 80% of our visitors are windows users, we see it from web logs. However could you please send me a screenshot of those errors? (liudas@silverfast.de).

BTW, a new site design is already on schedule and that one will be 100% standards compliant.

Liudas
