AmigaKit down?

IE7 works fine but firefox 3.0.1 gets URL too long:

http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/GBP.php?lcsid=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[motorollin]

Looks like whatever redirects to GBP.php is appending the session ID loads of times instead of just once. If you edit the URL to just http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/GBP.php?lcsid=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx then does it work?

Edit - edit your post to remove the session ID. I just got in to your account!
Edit - it's ok, I just did you a favour and logged you off so the session ID is no longer valid.

OK thanks for the feedback- in interests of security, please edit the session IDs out of this thread ASAP!  Thanks.

Ok, done. Though it shouldn't matter now since I logged the session out.

I've been getting the too long message for over 2 weeks!
Still can't get on. :-(
I'm using Safari.

Do you have Cookies enabled?

What page are you viewing to generate that huge URL?  Do you press reload a few times?

The error happens when selecting the store. Selecting any store on FireFox it will generate that error?

Wow...the message above with the LONG URL seems to have impacted the message base here.  I've got the message windows pushed very wide here!

I've forwarded the URL I received via email.  I can access the front door but when I select store I end up with the 414 error!

Sorry that was my post with what turned out to be a HHHUUUUGGGGEEE URL!

@Amigakit

Why is the session URL sensitive? I've seen people post links with the session ID in, are people putting personal data at risk?

@AmigaKit

Still getting the 404:

I'd say perhaps that in the further interest of security that those session ID things be not used. If that's impossible, maybe do like how there is a generic URL that loads things from a session ID accessible page.

Working in IE7 again but not Firefox 3.0.1 (long url issue).

Tried deleting cookies but still no joy.

[amigakit]

Tested with Firefox 3 with no issues here. Pmail me with the offending link.

Cleared cache again and now www.amigakit.co.uk works fine in firefox 3.0.1.

[DBAlex]

OK, Working now.

Dunno what the issue was.  :-?

[wurzel]

Yes, it appears to be working, although the usual "splash" page with the flags isn't there.

This is on IBrowse
