i worked out (i think) why the forum messes up and keeps trying to put our posts in the wrong thread.

this is what happens, i chose to post a message, and click submit, it kicks me back to the main menu, instead of shoeing me the post, and then when i goto add a message in another thread, it has the code with all the escaped characters and html encoded shit, and then if i post a message, it posts it back in the thread the 1st one was meant to go?!?

it also happens if i get impatient and click the forum link up the top there (*POINTS*). i use ie 6, but it also happens in ie 4, 5, 5.5, i dont like netscrap (i sound like kahn), so i didnt try in that

I can't really follow you - I have heard that some people have had this problem, but I have no idea what it is, and your description doesn't really help me either... could you please try to make yourself a bit clearer?

#2: Also

I have only heard about it once I think... and I have never experienced it myself =(. I'd like to find out what is wrong here, but as long as I can't reproduce it, I'm more or less unable to.

here we go again.
to produce it:
1) you must try to post a msg
2) click the "forum" link up the top
3) then goto another tread, and you original msg shows up, escaped (ie, " = ")
4) type up a new msg, and post it
5) check the 1st thread, and its there

OR

it can happen if sometimes i get dumped back into the main menu, realy fast, faster than my "lightning fast" modem allows (its 56k here, lol)

i am going to try and "accidently" post this in another thread.

I can't reproduce it, but I have an idea where the problem might come from. The forms values are stored in the session, and they should get cleared when you make a post. Obviously, this doesn't work for you, which is odd, because it's server side, and the only thing that gets stored on your machine is the session id (either in a cookie or in the url). Are cookies disabled on your browser?

lol, i got the < and > the wrong way arround...

this tread not destroys ur session vars, thats a big flaw in this forum, i can add php commands.

<?php
echo phpinfo();
?>
<?php
echo phpversion();
?>
WOW!

?>

You can't add php commands, they are not executed. They are merely displayed so that one can show code. Sessions are used for storing serialized persistent objects in them. I'd be interested if anyone else is experiencing these problems or if you are the only one.

by Shockie on 04/11/2002 13:29

when i put in the comments, any thing in the < and > doest even got printed, does the forum destroy it?

this is a long winded way to go, but mabe put the values in the querystring, or hidden feilds?

this is the html coded version:
< and >

plain:
< and >

#13: c

by Shockie on 04/11/2002 13:37

maybe you should make it so that < and > arnt removed, but html_encoded

and also so we can add images. int the <img> tag, im using & g t ; and & l t ;

reply to this message

#14: No

by SleepwalkR on 04/11/2002 14:19

I don't want html in here. Right now, tags get stripped. I might change that so that it gets encoded in the future, but I don't see any sense in that since we're not going to discuss html here a lot.

#15: ok

by Shockie on 04/11/2002 14:48

maybe just images? or ubbc

What for? You can just paste your url and it's automatically turned into a link. Just like this: http://rem.fov120.com/images/eye.jpg
