Fetching Preview

[revwill]

For some reason, when I am wishing to preview my post prior to posting, in IE and firefox, it displays fetching preview and nothing happens.  This is the error that displays in IE8

I suspect some thing
Ike project snow may be interfering with the JavaScript used in the preview

Thank you Kindred, I uninstalled project snow and tested and the error was still there.  I however did not do as far as deleting the files, I also asked the mod creator and he doesn't think it comes from the mod itself.

By the way, not so sure how much it's been noticed but I do want to take mention here that I appreciate you helping.  One only needs to go through and see how active you are so Thank you for your assistance and I am sure eventually this thing will pass.  Ass all good bugs do, maybe a little help from Squash

Never the less, Happy Holidays and Thank you

hmmm...  maybe fancy posts?  what does that one do?

Basically, what I think is happening is that some mod that got added is interfering with the javasccript used to generate the preview.

[revwill]

Fancy Posts is a simple BBCode Mod, but when I installed it fetching was working correctly after also--cause I had err I wanted to test it out with several of the codes it adds and play.

You know, I wish we had a date and time stamp when we actually installed the code and when we update the mods as well.  Like a running history per mod.  This way it could be easier to recognize which were the last ones added.  I will keep testing and Thank you for assisting.  I hope you won't mind my popping in with a question for this until it gets resolved.

Thank you

William

Still having this problem, but I have a little more information to show.  It seems to only happen when you modify a message.  If you preview a new message while editing it all works fine including preview...

I hope all those intelligent php folks or those really smart with smf can help...

Thank you in advance...

Thank you Kindred, is there a way you could pin point it maybe?  Was hoping maybe the more information I gave would help narrow it down some...

Thanks again for helping.  I sure do appreciate it.

turn off "eval" in your smf admin > server settings

I just did thank you...  It is turned off now.

Let us know if it worked.

[Kindred]

that won't FIX anything... what that will do is change the error message so that we see the real problem rather than the mask.

Thank you again Kindred...

The browser error looks still the same

but what is the error in the SMF error log now?

I'm sorry for misreading something... I thought you meant a different setting, geez.

[revwill]

but what is the error in the SMF error log now?

Sorry for the delay.  There seems to be no error in the error log now since we made that change.  Just the browsers seeing the error is all.  I just checked again and tested and nothing is being recorded.
