@Droid

And have you emailed the webmaster about your problem?

Thanks for the advise and the attempted cheap shot but we're already way ahead of you.

The site works fine with ANY browser that has cookies enabled.  The site login also requires that you have cookies SAVED as well as accepted.

Cheap shot? actually many people where complaining about it but at it is wonderful "Amiga inc" people should say nothing.


Ok, I can accept that as your reasoning. and I apologize for over-reacting.

However, Amiga people (me in particular) have been handling and replying to ALL emails received on this subject.  If there is anyone having a problem now, they haven't e-mailed me (webmaster@amiga.com or rakey@amiga.com) detailing their problem.

I only have two things to note:

One is that the site (like all of our sites) uses PHP sessions.  This means, like amiga.org's login and most other PHP sites with a login setup, cookies must be enabled and SAVED as well.  One user had an IBrowse problem in which he accepted cookies but didn't have IB set to SAVE them as well. Once enabled, he had no problem.

The other problem is one of browser caching.  For some reason, one or two users had logged in using a version of IBrowse (I do not know the version number at this time) and after he logged in and hit the "Club Amiga Features" section to find it said he needed to login when he had loged in already.  I told him to hit the browser REFRESH/RELOAD button and lo and behold, the site worked fine thereafter.  So, beware of browser caching on some browsers.   Just imagine, if that's happening on os.amiga.com, what other new content are you missing on other sites due to a caching problem with your browser?

Bottom line, if something doesn't look like it's acting like it should, hit the refresh/reload button/hotkey.

..there, all explained.. :)
