Technical problem
 
Is anyone else having this problem? When I lick on "post my message" up comes a long vertical box that takes up nearly all the screen.

PalQ Jun 20th, 2006 08:30 AM

Not when i lick the box but at times yes when i click on it and i wonder what happened and why. But not recently.

JAGIRL Jun 20th, 2006 08:33 AM

yeah...I even posted the question in the "Other" section of this forum. The problem is even worse in the Caribbean Boards! What's up with this?!

I hit "post my reply" and another window opens where I have to retype the message and hit "post my reply" again.

It could be that you can't hold your licker.

FainaAgain Jun 20th, 2006 08:40 AM

Yup, and I don't lick anything :)

I have to click on the post's topic twice to avoid this.

noe847 Jun 20th, 2006 08:46 AM

yes, lots of weird things have been going on for me today with this site. Boxes come up in strange shapes, replies won't post, etc.

Brings to mind some dialogue from "A Prairie Home Companion"...

================================

Garrison Keillor: We come from people who brought us up to believe that life is a struggle, and if you should feel really happy, be patient: this will pass.

Lefty: [singing] Liquor she said, and lick her I did, and I don't work there any more.

Yolanda Johnson: Isn't that a Carter Family song?

Lola Johnson: Who?

Yolanda Johnson: The Carter Family. Like us only famous.

==================================

Best wishes,

Rex

Yes, I've been having this problem also. It's the same as jagirl's. I've been copying my message to save to the next window that opens.

BayouGal Jun 20th, 2006 11:02 AM

I have the same problem. Does anyone have an email address to write in about this problem? I went to the feedback form, but not sure that's the best place to send a complaint.

Gracious, Rex

The movie just came out, and you have it memorized already?

((I))

rex Jun 20th, 2006 03:07 PM

No memorization... searched "liquor lick her" (I did remember that much of the line)... and found it on someone's blog site.

suze Jun 20th, 2006 04:40 PM

I have found that if when you click to add a post... if the format looks wacky to you, just go back and continue to click until it comes up in a normal looking format. Then your reply will take. Trying to type in that long vertical box like Underhill mentions doesn't work.

suze Jun 20th, 2006 04:42 PM

So hit "post a reply to this message" and when it looks weird, then hit "back"... repeat as many times as necessary.

That's my work-around for this one.

Underhill Jun 21st, 2006 07:21 AM

Same thing today.

carylspall Jun 21st, 2006 07:25 AM

It's annoying me now.

myvenezia Jun 21st, 2006 07:36 AM

this is weird..
I could barely find the reply box. it was way over in the right hand corner and the screen is twice as big.

Maybe I will research restaurants and sights in Italy. :)

kappa Jun 21st, 2006 07:50 AM

Perhaps it's a sign time to take a vacation from Fodor's fro a while ? ;-)

DejaVu Jun 21st, 2006 08:03 AM

This is freaky. I can post in some threads but in others I get a funky box thing too.

But I ain't lickin' it.

Robespierre Jun 21st, 2006 08:19 AM

If you want to get rid of all that weirdness, try running Firefox with Adblock Plus loaded.

I haven't seen a single anomaly referred to in this thread.
