Site Upgrade
« on: August 01, 2006, 11:53:59 AM »
We are experiencing a problem with user registration and this is difficult to diagnose. We will upgrade the site very soon. You will see the site go off line possibly for several hours. We will limit the downtime but it could be longer. Appreciate your patience.

Thanks for your patience! We have had 24 Hours downtime, but we now believe everything is working as expected.

You may report errors or problems in this thread.

This has been the largest upgrade yet on SA Fire Fighter. With changes to software and databases.

You should see improved site speed/load times and security has been enhanced.

Enjoy!!!! :-D

I get a little "image not found" icon under my posts... it appears to be modify_inline.gif that is missing...
When i select 'view image':

The requested URL /boards/Themes/PortalBlue/images/icons/modify_inline.gif was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

If that page is loading for you on your first visit to the site - it's possible you have your favourite set to that link.

The page is a normal part of the forum which displays a member list and is available from the members button at the top of the forum.

Try clearing your cookies/cache. This site is built with IE and Firefox in mind.

The little box on the left <<  (the one which shows who posted, their rank, etc etc) the little pics with the msn man, profile button etc, often dont show, or are blank boxes..

Do You Have VLC Player Installed?  There Is A Known Issue With VLC Installing Its Own Plugin For FireFox.  If You Don't Have VLC Do You Run Anything Like NoScript Extention.

Many of the icon related issues are now resolved - Funny how you fix one problem only to create another.

Graphic trouble shooting continues.... :roll: :-D :-D :-D

There is nothing from this site that would prevent you from using media player in Firefox. :-D
