Page 1 of RE: Forum layout...RJS...

I used to use the link:
http://www.forums.reviewer.co.uk/forums/all.asp

And that just showed the forum, without all the menus down the side. Any chance that there`s a new link for that?
Don`t like the reduced real estate for threads now...but the posting mechanism is much better, so well done on that.

Also getting this error fairly often:
Error: ERROR: column "nan" does not exist; Error while executing the query
SQL - SELECT intcategoryindex, strcatdescription FROM tblcategories WHERE intcategoryindex = NaN AND intcategorytypesindex = 12 Microsoft JScript runtime error `800a139e`

Exception thrown and not caught

Editing not working either.

Using Firefox 3.6 on Mac OSX by the way.

Not liking the more intrusive adverts, but I guess the site needs to be funded somehow.

I`ve been using the forum link for years, so can`t say I like the layout now, too busy!
Let`s hope its just a short term thing.....
even the emotions are different now

I use the following link and it works well;
http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/reviews/ChannelReviews.asp

I`m using WinXP on and IE8.

Just a suggestion...

It`s just become too difficult to maintain multiple sites, especially when you look at the stats and see how few use the forums only one. :/ And there are new features I want to add which are impossible on the old site platform.

If you could let me know the URL that gives the error you posted above, and the URL you were on before (or what you were doing before) that`d be very helpful!

The new site should load a lot faster than the old one, it isn`t table based, plus the adverts shouldn`t slow it down at all either.

The old dvd.reviewer is still working whilst I fix things that don`t work on the new site though.

On Windows XP now, using Firefox 3.5.7 (with the "NoScript" add-on, but all sites allowed apart from google-analytics.com)...also using Ad-BlockPlus, but I doubt that has any impact.

Using this link:
http://www.dvdreviewer.co.uk/Forums/General/t795737/Forum_layoutRJS/page1

Then selecting the edit option on the first post:
http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/edit.asp?Message=795737&Forum=113&Type=1

This re-directs to this page:
http://www.dvdreviewer.co.uk/Forums/Edit.asp?i=795737

The posting comes up as expected, try to add/modify the content and press the "Update Message".
It then redirects me back to:
http://www.dvdreviewer.co.uk/Forums/

And the posting hasn`t updated.

Using IE6 on the same machine (it`s a work PC and they won`t upgrade the browser!), it highlights a Javascript error when pressing the "Update Message" option....it won`t help you, but line 208 "Object expected".
I hate those object expected errors, you can never tie the buggers down!

Updated to 3.6, switched off "NoScript"...still can`t submit the edits.

So who uses the new address then? I tried it but thought the google search was crap - but RJS said it was it because the site wasn`t fully indexed on google yet. But it`s almost impossible to find an old thread on the `old` site so I may as well switch?
