 Posted: Sep 04, 2008 1:08am Post subject: Network info updating |
 |
|
I believe this area should be changed. If I'm logged in on these forums, I shouldn't have to login with the same account and password to update my network. I just happened to spend an hour on thinking and typing out my network's information, and after clicking submit, I was prompted for the username and password again, as the session expired. I didn't save my work, and it didn't either!
How about a fix for that too? Perhaps make it save the work? If you press the back button on radiodaddy.com, all work is still there and was saved! How about something like that here? 
Or if you have any way or method of me somehow magically recovering all of that hard work, that would be even better!  |

A few forum apps like vBulletin use either a hidden iframe or something else to have a small page refreshing every so often on any data posting screens with the intention of keeping the session active. Maybe SIRC should implement something like that. |

Already got one (won it via auction on trademe) however it's slightly faulty - it takes 7 days to travel into next week...
Alternatively, lend me a ssh port, host, user, and password and we'll take it from there  |

I don't think there is a need for that. The session is set to not expire unless your browser is closed. Unless this is a widespread problem, I will assume this user's browser or computer settings are the root cause. |

| Could be that I was using Google Chrome.. I was forced to do that because the forms for the network description, services description and history weren't loading for some reason in Internet Explorer 6 |

chrome seemed pretty awesome at first. lightweight, fast, I liked just about everything in it. But after a few hours it became apparent that I would have to go back to firefox. Despite it's name, it's not yet polished. I also miss adblock and some other features.
I think it might be a contender in the future, it's just not there yet. But it's pretty damn impressive for a first release. |

Actually a good webmaster should insure that their site works in a wide variety of browsers, not just 1 or 2 .. so if something was messed up it would be of interest to the webmaster and could eventually be a "problem" for the webmaster. |

| The browser came out this week. The site works fine with it. It's a brand new browser, how much testing should I have done for it? :P |

| No, it's IE6 that the page wasn't correctly working in.. In the status bar, it kept saying "Error on page". That forced me to use chrome. |

lol, I've had no problems rendering this site with Chrome other than some odd spacing. Which I blame solely on the browser to be honest.
I agree it's a great browser and rather impressive for it's first release. |

yeah except, be careful what you use chrome for.. read the terms of agreement and you'll find that any images you upload or transfer to someone else, whether personal picture of yourself or something, it becomes google's property, and they have complete property rights over it then, and have the right to do whatever they wish with it.
i only wonder if theres any fine print somewhere that says the same about any account and password you use to login to a website... lol |

| They're changing the terms now, and it will be made retroactive. |
