Instead of getting the normal Graphic Headers.

Is it just my computer and Firefox ?

Seems to work fine in Internet Explorer.

Maybe Terry updated the software recently ?


Happy New Year All.

Yesterday, I had to install a new DSL modem....old one fried. When I did that, I ended up with AT&T as my home page, still IE, but I get what you describe on the forum. On my laptop, still the same old set up.

Looks good now. You must have fixed it.


Yes, I do believe it is fixed.

Have a Great New Year.

This site is looking funny again.

Did it get a new update ?

Happy Dr. King day.

I started seeing the format in your original post occasionally, yesterday I think. But everything else seems normal. Updated to FF 18.0.1 few days ago, maybe that was it.

It is back to normal again.

I have a older XP machine and use FF-12 when I see it happen, Looks ok in IE-6.

Now it looks good in both.

Thanks Terry.

I'm not sure if it's a FireFox 18.0.2 issue or something else, but in the past week or so when I try to open up some threads (but not others) I get a screen bearing the messages:

502 Bad Gateway

nginx


Sometimes it's intermittent, but usually consistent & thread-specific- about half the threads return that error.

This does not occur on other forums that I frequent- so far it is unique to this one.

Any clues as to what's going on here?

Hopefully that is fixed.
They repartioned the drive. It was running out of space.
I switched to a newer faster server and for some reason they didn't expect as much traffic as this gets.

Just to verify, it's definitely NOT fixed (not yet, anyway.)

Yesterday I was unable to re-open this thread to read your response, and today this is the first success out of a handful threads I've tried to open.

Still getting the problem. It seems as if the older a thread is, the more likely it will open. As soon as I post this reply, I will not be able to read it again for a day or three. (Frustrating, when trying to read newer threads, or post followups within a reasonable time frame.)

I have noticed problems lately also.

Looks like some web code tweaking has been happening.

By proper authority I would hope.

Setting your browser to update/reload when you visit the site may help if you have a cache issue.

Maybe you have a bad cookie.

I use IE9 at home and IE8 here at work; so far, I have not seen these issues methinks. I don't remember it at all, anyways

It is strange. Things seem to be normal again for now.
