Hello, Tip.It Forum Staff... B)

 

I was just logging on to the Tip.It Forums this morning, and suddenly found a load full of these "Icon" phrases on my screen, in place of where images should be present. When I went to right-click in FireFox and select "View Image" with a middle click in order to put it in a new tab in an attempt to get it to load, I instead got the following, and not the image that was supposed to appear:

 

The image http://forum.tip.it/public/style_images/runetips/user_popup.png cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

I looked at it once, hit shift-reload (bypassing cache) to attempt to get it to load, even tried the added functionality of the Show Image extension I've got loaded in this version of FireFox, and upon getting over at least half the frustration I was feeling, started this thread. So, the problem is either at your end, or due to some pesky router between me and you. Anywho, could you please check that the image is present on your server in the first place??? :blink:

A techie would be able to provide a more concrete answer for you, but the image seems to be loading fine for me.

 

:mellow:

I am in the same boat as SerpentEye, it's loading perfectly fine for me. Perhaps its a problem on your end.

All images working fine for me as well.

 

Try a hard refresh and/or a different browser.

Try a hard refresh

Did that when I bypassed the cache with a shift-reload... so that's already tried. :(

 

and/or a different browser.

Wish I had one to try... Internet Explorer isn't allowed here where I live with my parents, and we don't have any alternate browsers because I can't get my dad to install any... (Of course, I can't blame him... There is NO perfect equivalent to AdBlock Plus on any other browser right now. At least, that I know of...) :unsure:

 

Perhaps its a problem on your end.

I haven't changed anything here... And I know my dad hasn't... So the problem definitely isn't mine, since everything else here is working well beyond perfectly... Might be my ISP, Verzion, that's doing it, but I'll have to get my dad's help with that. :geek:

 

 

It would appear that, long and short, I'm pretty much screwed then... Oh well... I'll just have to pray it starts working again. -.-

It's happened a few times to me, but it always rectifies itself within a few minutes. It's normally when my connection is slow that I experience it. I cannot see how it is tip.it's fault though when it only happens to a specific user.

Same here. Just wait it out then I suppose.

It could be due to a potential permissions issue, which is part of why I began the thread. Of course, I don't think I made that potentially apparent... :oops:

 

Anywho, I'm waiting to see if it will fix itself... no dice so far. :(

 

~D. V. "whoops..." Devnull

displays on my university's machines and on my home machine - two different ISP's.

If it was a permissions issue it would be affecting other users, and it isn't.

Procisely my thoughts. There are thousands of people with the Member rank, I'm sure they would have had a similiar issue if it were a problem with forum permissions.

I have a member test account that it also works fine on.

Moved to Tech & Computers, as it seems like a problem on your end.

Nevermind... this one's Case Closed already... been a few days since I could get to this specific PC, and thankfully the browser's cache was willing to come unstuck this time... What a headache, though. :wall:
