shout box?
 

Where's the shout box? :oops:

To be blunt:
If I remember correctly, <insert responsible person here> ruined it for everyone and it was closed down.

Re: shout box?
 

It's below the forum login box on the forum index page.

This gets a little bit technical now:

I bet you have posting problems sometimes too. Here's why:
Usually forum surfers have just one connection from their computer to the webserver. This connection maintains your username & password. You however have at least 4 connections active. Only one of them is logged in and can post. Something in your setup differs from most of the other users, so here are my questions:

(1) What operating system?
(2) What browser?
(3) Dialup or broadband?
(4) do you connect through a proxy server?

(1) What operating system? Windows XP
(2) What browser? IE 6
(3) Dialup or broadband? Broadband
(4) do you connect through a proxy server? No

Guppie likes the shoutbox already.. :lol: So.... it's like a chatroom when you are online on mlukfc?

Yes.

I have a question R.

Will the shoutbox save all messages or will it be deleted after ????? messages?

:twisted: Good question Michel.
I would also like a little clarification on how the shout box is suposed to be used.Is postwhoring around or is it for information?
Just curious :wink: .

[quote="dottie"]quick bump for R. hope you don't mind

As of now, the last 50 messages will be displayed and messages older than 30 days get deleted from the database.

Dottie, how many windows do you have open when surfing here?

Sometimes, I return post from Yahoo. (That would be 2)

Other times I enter Forum directly (That would be 1)

Any news?
Please verify your internet explorer settings:

Go to "Advanced" and see if both checkboxes of HTTP 1.1 are checked or not. If not check them, if they are checked uncheck them.

Thought I'd better post here as well - Ellis has UNCHECKED them R.

R. I can access the shout box now, everything appears to be running hunky dory too. thanks for you working your magic :D

:lmao: Lord preserve us and guide us Dottie has access to the shout box :twisted:

Houston, we have a problem. :mrgreen: :lmao:

:lmao:

I promise on my honour not to abuse the shout box :lol: :lol: :lol:

I will temper my postings in the shout box Michel I promise :lol: :lol:

Well I spoke way to soon :twisted:

Well, as long as we don't find out why your computer connects more than once to this website, you will have some problems every now and then.

You might want to check that "Log me on automatically each visit" checkbox.
This could help.

Will do R. thanks once again

Too funny :lmao: :lmao:

I'm Back! :lol:

I'm glad to hear it Dottie :lol:

No, I'm back and I Want your clothes and boots!!

Only if you ask very nicely........ :P :twisted:

That shoutbox is a bit irritating, even if it is closed. I have a 56k6 modem and when the page is loading, it take much longer. So don't like it that much.

GET DOWN!!! :lol:

I can understand it. Because a few months ago I also had a 56k6 modem, but now I have ADSL. And that is great.

ADSL... well not for me. NOt yet....

Hey Tim,

I did a small modification which saves ~8 kilobytes of traffic while loading the index page.
This should compensate for the additional loading time of the shoutbox.

:lmao: Is this supposed to mean something :??: :lmao:

Yes. The forum index page should load a little bit faster.

Thank you R. I've noticed it.

8)

What do you think, how much is it? A second?

:lmao: well why didn't you just say so :lmao:

Sin..........drowning in techno speak :twisted:

well... some seconds i would say. I got the fasted computer at this moment, but only with a 56k6 modem. That is the only problem.

But it saved defenitly some time.

Well I would love to SHOUT, but it will not let me again :!: :twisted: ppfff!!

You ain't alone dottie cos it won't let me SHOUT today either :cry:

I can shout no probs...... :roll:

8O WOW.....so can I now :lol:

Hi there Terri, Non Shouters of the World Unite :lol:

Dottie, check the shoutbox again, does it work now?

Yes it does now R. :D thank you
