QUOTE(vbritton @ Feb 5 2007, 10:00 AM) I got this error message when trying to preview before posting: Looks like things are working, if a bit of a rough start... Oops. Looks like I spoke too soon. Got this message just a couple minutes ago when I couldn't use the shoutbox, I tried to post here and the message: "Authorization mismatch - please go back and try again. If you have been trying to access a function incorrectly, please use the proper method."

Just out of curiosity, could the people who are having this unfortunate board error to visit this site http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp and let me know if you have the latest java installed?

Thank you.

I did not have the latest version. I just downloaded it so I'll tinker around and see if it makes a difference....

Okay. Good then. Don't for get to clear your cache and all downloaded internet files and restart your browser.

Testing, testing, 123...

Well, I was actually able to reply to a post on my veggie thread. Your strategy of delegating the shoutbox to the main page only seems to have worked. Let's hope it stays that way.

Testing yet again.

Confirmed. I had (and have) the latest and greatest version.

Got a couple posts in on the forum, but now the shoutbox isn't working again.

I hate to say this, but I' getting logged off again when I try to preview or post on the board. This is the error message I get:

"

I also got the "authorization mismatch" crap again. I don't understand why I was able to post for a short while and then it suddenly stopped. HELP

Testing again...

It's probably because I had to rebuild the forum skin cache. You should be able to post without any problem from now on.

Please let me know via PM if you can't post.

In the mean time, I have made the shoutbox to appear only on the board index page so that ALL members can benefit the Trap17 community. Since I cannot trouble shoot individual computer's setting I made it easier for all of us to disable shoutbox from appearing on every page.

To chat contineously, use the Trap17 Shoutbox line http://www.trap17.com/forums/index.php?autocom=shoutbox

UPDATE:
This still did not resolve for one member. So the board is featuring two skins for now: Default and Lite. Lite skin was used by vbritton and still reports as successful in making posts. Please use this skin when posting until further notice. Forum skins can be choosen by going to the bottom of the page (any page) and selecting an appropriate skin.

Thanks guys.
