New forum slow as tar

I thought NetScape Navigator was by far the most dominant browser well before IE was released.

NCSA Mosaic is the first browser I remember using. It was released in 1993. IE came along in 1995 I think.

And Navigator inbetween in 1994.

Oh no, a browser war all over again.

And after all that, the site works great in IE6 now so it shows it can be done, just needs a decent programmer

One note though, I have been using Firefox 3.5.6 and it fails to remember me despite me choosing for it to remember me. Anyone know if this is a known issue with Firefox?

I have the same version of Firefox and it works for me. Though I simply bookmarked https://www.electro-tech-online.com/usercp.php for this purpose which works well for me.

Yes, I have the same problem. I'm replying using IE7 cause I can't login with Firefox (any version of Firefox). I used to have this shortcut https://www.electro-tech-online.com/search.php?do=getnew as my bookmark that 1st, remembered me, and 2nd, opened the forum for me in "New Posts" view. Firefox is a no-go for me at this moment in time when visiting this site. I still use it for everything else though

Yes, I did notice the scripting changed a bit. I have fixed the link accordingly. I'm now on Firefox. I had to log in (did not remember me) but at least I could use the "New Posts" button without being logged off again. Thanks.
