Hi!
I have installed the forum and all is working fine, other than the emails received by Moderators and subscribers contain an incorrect URL link back to the forum. The received URL is:
http://WEBSITE/topic.asp?whichpage=-1&TOPIC_ID=4
but the actual one for the first page is:
http://WEBSITE/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4
and for a 2 page forum is:
http://WEBSITE/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4&whichpage=2
I tried searching the forum but this always times out for me and a manual search came up with nothing. is this a known problem? It looks like there should be an easy fix but I can't find the appropriate asp page. Could someone point me in the right direction, please
Thanks, in advance
PS
I'm using the latest classic asp version |
Cheers
Bill |

Hi! Thanks for the reply
Sorry, are you saying that:
http://WEBSITE/topic.asp?whichpage=-1&TOPIC_ID=4
(the URL received in the email)...is correct?
All I can tell you is that when I click this it merely takes me to the home page rather than the page which has address:
http://WEBSITE/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4
I don't understand why it gives me a constant "whichpage" value of "-1". Am I misunderstanding something?
Thanks again

Cheers

I have tested this a few times and clicking the URL merely sends me to the home page. For some reason its not recognising the "-1". Could I have missed a configuration parameter? Any ideas where I've gone wrong
PS
I tried a test by going to the 2 page topic:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=67666&whichpage=2
...and replaced the "2" at the end with a "-1"
It took me to the default.asp page, rather than the topic itself

| What database and connection string are you using (just interested in the type, not your details - server, password, username are of no interest and shouldn't be posted)? |

really ??? if I use http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=67666&whichpage=-1 I get taken to the second page of the topic as expected.
what browser are you using ? |

| if the same thing happens to you here, it is not a setting on your forum, it must relate to your browser |

| he says the same thing is happening here, so it can't be anything to do with his forum at all, it must be browser related |

HuwR:
IE v6.0.2900.5512.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090206-1234
...but you are right, it is a browser issue, as it works correctly with Firefox
As I am in an office environment, I can't get the browser easily changed for all potential users. I'd welcome any suggestions but if not, we'll have to live with until we upgrade
Thanks, both, for your help

IE 6 is > 8 years old and should be nuked from the face of the planet, it is an appalling browser with many security holes and very little support for internet standards
