Some have been having issues with registering for these forums. I believe it is a browser cache issue. What happens is that people register, then they get redirected to a sign-in page but the browser shows the page from the previous time instead of loading the new one. The forum software seems to need the page request to complete the registration process. So what is the fix? Set your browser's cache setting so that it compares the cached page to the one being requested every time. In Mozilla it is in your preferences, Firefox seems to do this by default. I am not sure about MSIE, I haven't used it in like 5 years. Posted by ke4nt1 on Aug. 27 2004,20:55
Firefox, by default, has a rather large cache, that frequently DOES NOT refresh properly.. I set my cache to 1K just for this reason... I recommend using the "shift-reload" combination to force a refresh on those pesky pages.. 73 ke4nt Posted by John on Aug. 31 2004,03:52
