Cannot post to this forum using Firefox

  • Unknown's avatar

    Recently, from time to time, I’m getting a strange error when trying to post to this forum using Firefox 3.5.2. Upon hitting ‘Post’ this appears:

    bbPress Installation
    
    The tag was not added. Either the tag name was invalid or the topic is closed.
    
    Back to WordPress.com Forums.
    
    bbPress - simple, fast, elegant

    The error does not appear in any other browser. What could be wrong?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    i’m also using ff-3.5.2 , but it’s working fine !!
    might be some add-on/plugin or setting issue.

    It only happens from time to time, and while it most certainly is a setting or plugin issue, the error message given doesn’t leave any clue as to what is wrong. That’s what frustrates me.

  • Unknown's avatar

    since ff-3.5 a lot of errors occur on wp due to Google Gears addon
    if you have it – that may be the cause !

    No Gears. But I also remember another strange issue. Some of my comments/answers here only show up when I’m logged in, not when I’m logged out. The posts appear in the threads as they should, but are not posted to the outside world. Anyway…

    Have you noticed the odd behavior near the time wordpress asks for a refreshed log-in?

    I usually look at the forums with Safari, but occasionally I use Firefox. If I use an “old” window, sometimes I get a blank screen, then something about trying again…
    Or sometimes it brings me to the forum here, but to page 2 where there are no comments. If I refresh, I get the latest comment on page 1. In both cases, I then must log-in again.

    Quirky.

    @husdal next time that happens can you tell me if Firebug is reporting any errors?

    latest version works fine for me. i have gears installed.
