So I have a weird problem

[Jim]

When doing the newsletter, I go to our news page.
http://www.greenguysboard.com/news.html
And I click on view source and copy the code. Here is the problem...
Only on that page when I click view source using IE, nothing happens. When I do it useing Firefox, it works.

WTF???
:)

One more thing for those inclined. It isn't a mac vs windows problem.

[Greenguy]

Who the fuck taught you to make html pages? :D

[Cleo]

Switch to Safari

[Lemmy]

Sound like a browser problem. Did you delete your cache?

[Mr. Blue]

Delete the temp Internet files

hope this helps.

Yep...sounds like you need to dump your cache. Sometimes restarting IE is also necessary.

Have seen the same problem cause all images to be saved as .bmp :(

[juggernaut]

in case you still have the issue i placed a copy of the code on my server

http://www.jollycams.com/source.txt

save the file someplace and right click it and open with
notepad

[Jim]

Thanks
Nothing worked :)
I don't have a problem getting the source. Firefox works and even if it didn't I would just ftp and grab the page.

The funny thing is that it only happens on the page Greenie made :)

[Greenguy]

If you had a real editor, you could just go to the page, highlight the text that you needed & paste that into your newsletter page :D

(and yes, I can easily view the source of the news.html page, so it's just you)

note that the </head> tag is closed well inside the <body>

perhaps the nested tags are causing IE to go loopy.

[Cleo]

And people wonder why I keep IE around to do reviews

I knew there was something screwy with the code.

[Ramster]

Cache or Temp Internet Files?

Intersting, this happens to me occasionally too.

[Toby]

...causing IE to go loopy. I thought loopy was the default state for IE :D

Whew! I'm just glad this thread had nothing to do with butt boils forming on Jim's ass! |pokefun|

[Tommy]

I thought it was gonna be another long thread about his penis again

[Cleo]

I remember threads about his ass pimple but non about his penis. Did I miss something or are they one in the same?

[chilihost]

Did you get this sussed yet? I would recommend:
- open ie, click tools, internet options and delete cookies and delete files
- click settings, view files and remove any files that are still there
- shut ie and all other programs
- reboot

this has fixed this issue in the past for me, good luck mate!

cheers,
Luke
