resolved Blank screen if firefox

[obone]

Having issues viewing AFO with firefox. All pages appart from the homepage appear like this:

Seems to be working fine for me with explorer however.

Cheers.

That's strange. I'm running Firefox with no problems at all. What version do you have?

[John]

yes please provide more information so we can help diagnose this issue. I use firefox as well as IE and have no problems.

I've been having this problem too with firefox,however if i go back to the login page it seems to start working.

[Scope]

Have same problem on firefox but only occasionally. Also sometimes I log in and it goes to my profile, I then click on the homepage and try to view posts and it appears I have not been logged in. Sometimes even when the 'new' tags are there.

Sometimes takes a few goes and only seems to be at peak times (not sure if this is relevant), I always seem to succeed in the end so not a major deal for me. Just thought I would pass on info

Cheers Jono

I had the same drama yesterday - figured that the site was down or something.

If it happens to me again, I will try to re-login and see if that fixes it!

hmmm we will look into the error, but at the moment we cannot replicate the issue. All seems to be working fine on firefox for us.

[flexo]

Had the same problem but found I had gone past the log in screen . went back to the log in screen logged in and all ok.

[Do$tylz]

yeah I had it the other day. I think it may be related to the latest version of firefox only and its not an issue that's easily replicated. Fix for me was close firefox and open a new instance.

Had the same issue at work today - went to the login screen and then all was fine.

Using firefox ver 3.6.2

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.2) Gecko/20100316 Firefox/3.6.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

I get this occasionally too. Seems to occur when I'm not logged in and try to view the forum by clicking on latest posts on the home page or refreshing a window that had a forum page open. I think a login form used to appear but now it doesn't.

FF 3.5.8 Mac

It was running like a dream and automatically logged me in until all those IE users piped up about their profile issues :laugh:

[John]

Yep, i think i know what the problem is. It is to do with being logged out.

We will fix this soon -ish...

[kakaryan]

I got the same problem too, after I change to use firefox from IE recently.

The web keeps logging me out I think about every 15 mins, makes me need to login everytime when I come back or or just keeps the AFO browser opens with no action.

It's really annoying sometimes, wish it will be fixed soon.

you may also want to check your security settings in Firefox,if you have them set up high it may block/screw around with some web sites/pages with certain types of files on them.

Firstly do what this link says to do-

Click for instructions

Also follow the link on 'profile to find your profile folder.

But just doing that didn't work for me, this is what you do after you do the above.

Shut down Firefox- open IE and remove all histroy, cookies, temp files, saved data passwords, the lot.

close it down.

Go to Firefox remove saved passwords, history, temps, everything, form data, the lot.

also remove AFO from Firefix favourites.

Close it down.

Now all data has been cleared

Open Firefox and go to google, type in AFO.

Go to the site and it should not recognise you or even your password.

(If it remembers your login then you have not removed 'saved passwords').

So go to the login page and login, Firefox will then ask "do you want Firefox to remember this password?" click yes, you will be logged in.

Shut it down then go to google again and type in AFO.

Follow the link and the site will now recognise you (automatically logged in).

Add AFO to Favourites.

Cheers

btw. I think it might be a coruption of favourites,cookies or temp data that is imported from IE when you instal Firefox (it prompts you and gives you this import option).

Best way to avoid this is do not import anything from IE when you install Firefox.

Just start from scratch.

The error is to do with session times and token expiry. Hopefully we will be able to fix this further with some updates coming up. As yes it is still happening (even to me) on occasions.

[hooked_on_trout]

why post that six weeks later as if you know how to fix it?

my instructions will fix it.

cheers
