Poco/Barca forum page will not load

[mig62]

I can not get Poco or Barca Forum "help and how-to" pages to display. The rest of the forum topics open and display just fine but I cannot get the other two to open. When I click on the help and how-to all I get is an html page. If this is the wrong place for this question, Iam sorry but , as I said, I cannot access the correct one. Thank you for any assistance. I am using Firefox 0.9.2.

Hi mig62,

Strange, I never had a problem with Firefox 0.9.2 accessing forums or parts of it. Can't try it out, because recently I uninstalled Firefox 0.9.2.

It's a general question, so it's the right place.

Have you tried accessing these parts with IE6? If so, can you display them?

Update: Just reinstalled Firefox and I'm not having any problems displaying the Poco or Barca Forum "help and how-to" pages.
Must be something to do with the settings in Firefox, I presume.

Yes, I have tried it in IE6. Same result. Different display. Those are the only two that I have a problem with. They do open and display properly every once in a while. In fact, I had a problem getting the reply screen to display. It just started since Poco forums came back on line. I believe I updated from Firefox 0.8 to 0.9.2 in the meantime. If that makes any difference, I don't know.

:roll: It must be something on your PC, because I've no problem displaying these pages with Slimbrowser, Opera & Firefox. Even the reply works as it should.

Thank you for your replies. I suspect it is my machine since I can view all the other forums without problems. Would anybody have an idea where to look for a cure? I am fairly new at this and have no idea where to start.

Hi Mig62,

I, too, am using Firefox 0.9.2 and have had no difficulty opening any of the forum pages.

You may want to consider clearing your cache, then reloading the main forum page to see if that works (Tools>Options>Privacy>Cache_Clear).

Hope that helps,

Grant

Tried it and didn't work. What puzzles me is that all the other ones work fine. Some times I can go in and delete the cookies and then they will work. But only for that session. Must be an answer some where. Thank you anyway.

Also tried in IE with the same result. All open with the exception of Poco/Barca Help and How-To.

When you say this, where are you seeing it? They will open OK from the Forums Index, but on each of the pages you see some "breadcrumb navigation" at the top that tells you where you are...

Forum Index -> PocoMail Help and How-To

but while this latter bit *appears* to be a link it actually isn't because it points to the page that you are on. Which is maybe why it doesn't appear to work.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I am having all kinds of trouble even being able to access the reply. I understand what you are saying. At least today it is responding better than it ever has. I don't know what I did but now I can get it to display. This is the only Forum that I have had trouble with since switching to FF 0.9.2. Thanks again for your help.

I use FF 0.9.2 without any problems. I wonder if there is a problem with your setup.

Just a FYI: All works well with Opera 7.53

I'm using Firefox 0.92 on Win XP Pro - no problems at all with this forum.

Finally got back on. Re-installed Firefox 0.9.2 and still have the same problem. It seems when I click on any item with color, such as Poco and Barca help and how-to, or post a reply, it opens a plain text/html page. This is only time in the last couple of days that I have been able to open the reply. I tried it in IE and have the same result. I know it must be something here but I have no idea where to look any more. If anybody has any ideas please let me know. Thank you in advance.
