Hello. First of all. very easy installation as these types of applications go guys. bravo.

I keep getting this one error on my xp box:

Cookies and Javascript must be enabled on your web browser in order to use this forum.

 

Yet:

1) I have set all internet options to LOW. I have allowed all cookies in the privacy section.

2) I am using the sun java console / app on the pc in question. Could this be the cause? Obviously i can post messages on this computer (different PC).

3) when I connect to the forum from this computer to my newly installed forum and log in, I still get the same error. So i am officially confused. This tells me that it is configuration related nO?

any clues?

 

tks

William

The problem is solved. Much simpler than i thought and as things normally go, it got solved just after posting. heheh.

THe problem was that I didnt have the categories setup in the topics. Once I did that then all was cool. So what looked like a cookie /javascript problem wasnt really a problem at all.

I would suggest to  ppl that if they can post on this forum, then t is not cookie / js related. Hope this help and thanks for what looks like an awesome bbs.
