Problems with accessing the site

Hello


I have a strange problem that only happens when I try to access, use or log on to, the East Dulwich Forum.


What happens is: my browser/computer/whatever is causing it, slows right down. While other sites open almost instantly, the browser window often starts up, runs its little blue line (that indicates it is going to the webpage) as far as the first h t t p / bit and then stops.


I have to repeatedly "empty cache", remove all cookies or even restart the browser, to be able to log on. This also happens when I try to move between threads. Sometimes I even have to shut down and restart.


I work online all day, every day (believe me), and my work involves visiting a lot of sites, yet this only happens with the EDF. I would be very grateful for any pointers as to why this is happening.


EDF has proved very useful for a number of things so I would like to use more, not less, but this slowing and crashing of my computer is a constant problem.


Thanks

Hi


Hmmm, never heard of this one before, I'm going to have to ask the usual questions:


Which browser + version are you using?

Which operating system + version?

Are you behind a firewall?

When you see the blue line down the bottom of the screen, does it say "downloading xxxx"? If so, can you say what xxxx is?


Also, try going to the home page http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/ and click on all six "Reset new posts" link


cheers

Tried the "Reset New Posts" and everything now loads zippily.


Thank you very much....was I being an idiot? It is not unlikely. Had no clue that doing that would help.


Forum is a very useful thing and I hope you received some kind of award for your achievement, not least for keeping it free of annoying flashy flashy ads for pointless things.


Ta KK also for your advice.

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Sue · Posted

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
