Try reuploading to the base forum perhaps?? The message board loaded just fine for me. Although the icons don't work.

ah! blinky linky!!!
did you put the images in a folder called something like "images"? if so, you need to tell the forum to look for them. log into admin options, and under "main forum configuration" (should be the first link on the left...) type the name of the folder your images are in where it says "Images Location:"
if this is not the case, then perhaps upload the image files again, but if you're using an FTP client, change the upload scheme to "binary." |
why do you not have something to drink... choose one making you better feeling...

I just remembered that I contacted my web host provider and told him that the messageboard wasn't secure and that anyone could download it if they knew the name of the database.
I do know that they did something to secure that database and another. Could that be the reason? If so, does anyone know what I need to do.
thanks
Also, I don't think I renamed anything but will check.. |

| yep that'll be it, they made the folder unreadable (by the public) to protect the db - you need the icons in a publically readable folder, maybe set yourself up something like /myimages folder and update your code/setings to match |

Well, just off the top of my head, I'd do three things.
1. In post.asp, make sure you have the following code, and that there are no alterations (beginning about line 1321):
if strAllowForumCode = "1" or strAllowHTML = "1" then
if strRqMethod = "Reply" or _
strRqMethod = "ReplyQuote" or _
strRqMethod = "Edit" or _
strRqMethod = "EditTopic" or _
strRqMethod = "Topic" or _
strRqMethod = "TopicQuote" then
Response.Write " <input name=""Preview"" type=""button"" value="" Preview "" onclick=""OpenPreview()"">"
end if
2. You can try uploading a "clean" version of post.asp (after backing up the current version) and see if that resolves the issues.
3. You might want to provide a link to a text version of your post.asp file for folks to examine.
Since the problems you are mentioning seem to come with the use of post.asp, I'm guessing that there's something altered in the code. |

| thank you very much for the tips. I checked my Post.asp file and it has the same code you posted. I also checked it out and the file hasn't been modified since 1/16/2004. The only think I can think of is that there is another file affected by then securing my database. |

| As I recall, the Preview button "calls" pop_preview.asp. You might want to try the same with that file; i.e., back up pop_preview.asp and replace it with a "clean" copy from the base Snitz code. If that works, you might want to use a tool such as Beyond Compare to compare the "clean" pop_preview.asp with the one currently being used. |
