I haven't started troubleshooting the code on this yet, but on the Active Users page, there are certain times when clicking on the link of a page that another member is viewing, a problem arises and jumps to the default page. I have isolated the issue to the url having unrecognized characters in it like so:
http://www.someforum.com/forum/topic.asp?whichpage=5&TOPIC_ID=10929(two squares representing unrecognized characters)
Further inspection revealed that the problem comes from my browser incorrectly translating &#and then truncating the rest of the url which should have been:
http://www.someforum.com/forum/topic.asp?whichpage=5&TOPIC_ID=10929⯖
Has this been resolved or even discussed before? Has anyone else had this problem? |

| Yes, there was a bug-report for it and it was fixed. I'll try to find it. |

| I tried to search, but obviously I am using the wrong keywords. Thanks for helping me look for this. I'll keep trying the search. |

Unfortunately, I'm not having much luck either. (I confused the Active Users page with the Active Topics page, actually)
Basically, all you'll need to do is use something similar to this:
fString = Replace(fString,"&#","#")
on the URL before it is displayed on the page. |

| that's what I figured and was going to try. I was just really curious if I was the only one experiencing this. I've let it go for so long and oddly for some reason, my users are just now pointing this out. I'll make the edits as needed. Thanks. |

| hmm, that gives an incorrect syntax error when I try doing the replace before the insert into the active users table or when reading the recordset for the active users page. I'll keep tweaking around with it. |
