Some users have a problem posting

[eko291]

Hi, I'm looking for feedback on a strange problem.  A couple of my users have a problem post.  They tell me they can only get about 1 of 20 post to actually go through.  It seems to be limited to certain computers as some of them can post from work, but not at home.  Here is the error they get:

Cannot find server-
The page cannot be displayed.
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. (etc etc)

If I refresh:
An Error Has Occurred!
The board you specified doesn't exist

or-

Your session timed out.

Thanks!
Mark

I think you should contact your host...
They are defently problems from accessing your site (and/or MYSQL)

I have to disagree with that.   Most other users have no problems and these users only have problems on certain machines.  It seems to be a problem with settings on those machines, however I'm not sure what they are.

which browser?

Appears to be IE.  I'm not a big fan of IE, but some people just won't use Firefox.  I'm about ready to just say to heck with it, get a better browser.

I had this same EXACT issue on my forums which drove me nuts for a couple days.  It only would error out in IE.  Opera and Firefox worked perfectly.  Simply change the COOKIE name of your forum and it will fix the issue.

Enjoy!

Thanks!  I'll try that now.
