Title: Having a problem with shoutbox
Post by: bijou on November 05, 2008, 04:40:26 AM

I managed to post a couple of shout this morning, but then it failed to show any more. They seem to have got lost in the system. Is it a board issue or could it be at my end?

It happens at my end too, and I always thought it was because I'm using Windows98 from this temporary computer, and Explorer instead of Firefox.

Usually I just constantly "refresh."

I'm using windows XP and firefox so we seem to have all bases covered, it must be a temporary glitch then, I've never had a problem before.

Is it possible to reverse the order of posts in the Shoutbox? If there's an option in settings, I've completely missed it. Having the order of messages with newest at top is alien to me.

I have to disable refresh, and scroll down to the bottom and read up.  Just to catch up.

I don't use the shoutbox much and keep it closed, but when I do read it, I do it that way.
