Heyas

My board is located at

http://www.delwindragonfly.com/clan/forum

Now that I have my boards MOSTLY working, and I have some people actively posting there, we have discovered an error. Sometimes a post will say it sucessfully posted, but when you go to read the topic, it won't show up. Then, if you click on "Reply to Topic", viola, you can see it as part of the preview of the topic under where you write to post.

Also, we cannot always get a topic preview, more often than not, clicking preview topic gives me an error that says there is no text inside some html code.

I don't think this is related to my other problems, but if you would like to know what else has been happening with my boards, reference :

http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=11083&FORUM_ID=34&CAT_ID=10&Topic_Title=Error+Help+Please++%3A++Microsoft+VBScript+800a01bd&Forum_Title=Help%3A++General

and

http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10431&FORUM_ID=34&CAT_ID=10&Topic_Title=Ranking+problems%2E&Forum_Title=Help%3A++General

Thanks for any help!

Are you using an SQL Database? If so have you made any modifications to topic.asp ?

No, I am using an access database, the one that came with the forum.

I did have to modify topic.asp to comment out rs.chache due to my other problem.

We have played with it some more. What is happening is that the first replay to every new topic must be double-posted in order to show up. I will look again at topic.asp to make sure I did not inadvertantly make any other changes to it.

What is probably happening is in the SELECT statement where the information to display the topic is being read from the database, the FORUM_TOPICS.T_MESSAGE field isn't being selected(read) last.

ok. So how do you suggest I get it to do that?

And, this is a code problem, not a database communication problem?

I was looking on your forum for an example, but haven't seen one, do you have a link to one that has the error in it?

Also, I was reading some of the posts on your forum, and you mentioned that this error shows up with the first reply to a topic? So the error is with a reply and not a topic?
