ok, same thing happens with me. new lap top running windows 8 and IE10, i can't see embedded clips, video icon is missing and the yellow arrrow-last post doesn't work can't post photos. tried chrome today and it all works albeit a bit slower, but when posting a vid or photo or quoting someone, it leaves the random text at the bottom. mozill firefox won't play/show embedded clips, so no good. so, it seems if you buy a new lap top your gonna get problems using this site.

Hi I can confirm there is a problem with posting via IE10 and image uploads. This problem has been identified to the software developers and they're working on a fix - hope to have an update through shortly. The work around is as follows. Either; - use Chrome or Firefox - swap IE to work in IE9 mode (if you know how) My recommendation is to use Chrome. I'll keep you posted - but unfortunately with the rate that browsers are changing at the moment these small issues will crop up from time to time.

As a work-around until the forum techos can resolve this problem, try typing your post into (say) Microsoft Wordpad and then cut and paste to the forums. Not saying this will solve your problem now, but it was a work-around a couple of years ago when folks were having similar problems... ------------- Semper in excreta sumus, solum profundum variat.... |

just had a look and downloaded some java updates, plug ins etc, shouldn't be this hard. crazy. hasn't made any difference, still can't see embedded clips with firefox, going to uninstall all this crap. seems there's always something else to install or update which shouldn't be the case with a brand new lap top! < id="_npwlo" ="applicationpwlo" height="0">

Eurofisha - can you link me to video's you're trying to view in Firefox please? My recommendation for the time being would be to view and post in Chrome for the time being. I assume you have no problems posting in Chrome? ------------- The Fishing Website - Fishing.net.nz Fishing knowledge on-line... |

I don't need the link posted via Firefox - just need the link to the page so i can view it in Firefox to understand the problem better. Just use chrome to post the link, PM it to me, or call or email me directly. Cheers Craig ------------- The Fishing Website - Fishing.net.nz Fishing knowledge on-line... |

| ok, think i've just made a discovery. when using chrome, (i am now) and i click on reply, the flashing cursor is in the middle of the box. if i hit the back space button once, the flashing cursor will go ALMOST to the far left of the box, leaving 1 character space. if i type like this i get no random text in my post. IF however, i back space the flashing cursor ALL THE WAY to the side of the box and then type my reply, i will get the random text in the post. oh boy! |

OK - I have researched this one a bit. The cause of this code; < id="_npwlo" ="applicationpwlo" height="0"> being injected is "from a misbehaving browser extension injecting code in to the post editor". So you can you let me know what extensions you have installed in your browser please? The quickest way to debug this one is simply turn all extensions off then slowly turn them back on whilst dong test posts. Sorry, bit of a painful process...

so, to re-cap. if you buy a new lap top and it has windows 8 and IE10 (as they all do), and you have problems with certain aspects of this site, there are things you can do. download chrome and go to settings, extensions, and disable the HP website logon simplepass extension. or download mozilla firefox and download adobe flash player into this. i did this by using firefox as the browser and whilst viewing a clip, (found embedded on fishing.net) on you tube, it will say a plug in is missing. hit install plug in and it will download adobe flash player into firefox for you. then you can use firefox and see all embedded clips on fishing.net. i find firefox is slightly smother and quicker. regards, Richy |
