    Meanwhile though, that's why I suggested Firefox or Safari, because if there's an error you can hit BACK and the form is re-populated.


I've actually found Firefox - at least the way mine is set - doesn't save pages. With IE I can recover my work if I remember to go offline then use the back button.

      It looks to me like the server simply ignores some page requests, perhaps as a means of protecting itself from overloading.

    I would have seen something like that from this end. Blank pages annoy the hell out of me.

    Does it come back blank/not responding after a very long delay? Very slow traffic between the points can cause the connection to time out.


The delays are intermittent but often occur when I try to open several pages in rapid succession - say when I'm tab-opening half a dozen replies to read later.

Sometimes the page simply fails because only half the HTML downloads. If I View Source the text simply stops part way through the document (at different places each time).

Sometimes the page fails right as it first opens, before I even get an "opening page mangacool..." message at the bottom of the browser.

Other times it fails as it calls up http://mangacool.com/php/msgpost.php?type=reply&rpy=parodyverse... It just doesn't receieve any information and eventually defaults to the page not found page.

Yet other times I get "privacy warning" and then the page fails.

Sometimes I get a page downloaded except that the background is white, the previous text that usually appears in a box nowaways is quoted in full on the generated page, and all the text is centred.

Another strange thing I've noticed lately is that when I call up pages on my laptop, which I still use on 800x600 resolution with IE6, I get scroll bars on the box with the main story text in it; the lines themselves go off the right of the page requiring a scroll on every line, effectively rendering the page unreadable.
