Techinical question for the forum gurus

[Corwyyn]

OK, here's the deal. Whenever I start up Firefox it appears to activate my bookmark/link for jeepkj.com. I've noticed that I can open it up to go to another site, do a google search or whatever, and later when I click on my bookmark (which takes me straight to the latests posts page) I get the 'no new posts or topics' message. I really noticed this earlier this week - I have a friend visiting me for the week, and one night while I was at work I did a quick check of the site and when I scrolled to the bottom of the page I saw my name in the list of users online. Now I had not logged in from my work computer so I know it wasn't from that, and when I asked my friend about it he hadn't gone there (yeah, he drives an Xterra anyway).

So I guess my question is what is going on? Is it a phpBB issue, a firefox issue or what? I can say that I do go to L.O.S.T. regularly which also runs on phpBB and I don't have this problem. I may have to try it in IE ( (blarg) ) or Opera to see it it acts the same.

Comments?

Well, looks like I stumped the experts But all is good, with the change to VB this is no longer an issue...

I've been reading of several people having issues with FF lately.

The only issue I have is when trying to view a video on a website (say a news website for example) and the video is set up in WMP to play directly on the site. FF doesn't have the plug in installed, and when I click "search for plug in" it always comes back with "none found"

Had this problem in the last couple of versions of FF now...

Go to tools, options, main and see if the kj site is listed alongside your your normal home page, this happened to me a few days back with ebay, every time I opened ff I got my normal home page and ebay

What gentleman said can be achieved by putting | character (Shift+\) between each URL on your "HOME PAGE" section in your settings. It works with FF, and might work with IE7 since it has tabs.

Yep like Kevin said, VB does not have this issue, matter of fact, you can still see the topics you saw before by using 24 HOURS link.
