Ok, when I load up http://www.mIRC.co.uk in Internet Explorer, I click the Message Board link on the left and it lets me click Login at the top no problem, it redirects me to the corresponding link.

However, I open up My Computer on the desktop (or any folder with the address bar showing), type in http://www.mIRC.co.uk into the address bar. This takes me to the homepage of mIRC, I click Message Board again. When I attempt to click Login it doesn't load up the login.php, where it'd normally redirect me, it directs me to https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php instead.

Is anyone having this slight glitch or is it just me? Hope to hear your feedback thanks in advanced.

nope, ... I have no idea what exactly could be your problem. Thr messageboard really isnt any different wether you come form mirc.com or any of its mirrors. There is nooo way it could behave differently :-)
Is it possible something else is bugging you?

Tjerk.

No other processes are running other than mIRC.exe and IEXPLORE.exe. I'll reboot my machine and see what path that leads me to, thanks for the reply.

Edit: Rebooting did the trick. Thanks Tjerk.

That just happened to me for the first time, I got logged out for whatever reason and now firefox won't take me to the login page, so i'm posting on ie instead (Which obviously does take me to the login page).

Firefox takes me to https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php?Cat=0

Now that i'm logged in with ie, firefox shows unread posts when somebody posts, even though i'm not logged in with firefox.

Kind of related: firefox also displays huge spaces between each line within code tags if you're not logged in.

I had that at one point, it's gone now. I think I cleared everything in Tools > Options > Privacy, and then re-logged in. Dunno about that 100% though.



Is this really ONLY with Firefox when you're not logged in? There is a 'bug' due to a patch on the boards that spreads out the code lines when a post is edited. Or is this different?

Regards,

LostServ (chap on this board) uses Mozilla firefox, and he told me: whenever a person edits his code, after that, the lines are spaced out.

I saw a screenshot, it's weird.

On AvantBrowser (IE based), I've never seen it, neither when editing, logged in or out.

Oh another very weird thing: sometimes you can copy the lines between code tags straight to the Scripts Editor just fine, and other times it puts it all on one line. No idea how that works :tongue:

And lastly: It's happened a couple of times: when you use the list tag, and put a blank line between each list item, and post, it looks like it should. If you then decide to edit your post, suddenly all the blank lines between the list items are gone. So I end up putting double blank lines then between them, and they display normally again (1 line between).

Some funky things going on here o.O

Hey FiberOptics, it's firefox (firebird is the beginning versions of firefox). Yeah there is a bug, once a post containing the code tags is edited, the code (text inside of the code tags) becomes spaced out.

Yeah, it happens whenever I edit a post with code in, so it's a forum bug?

Either way, one of the browsers doesn't render html correctly, IE displays no gap, firefox does.

Images:

Firefox displays <pre> tags in the expected way (it respects line-break characters in the text) whereas IE does not.

I posted a way in which both browsers could display [[/i]code] tags properly here.

It is a forum bug in a way, it has nothing to do with the upgrade but due to a patch applied to the board to make the code more "copy-pastable" (click).
