      I can post, if I adjust the relevant IE security zone.

       

      Alt-T (tools), Internet Options, Security, Internet, Custom Level, Scripting->Active Scripting->Enable

       

      This is only a diagnostic step. This actually weakens security across the entire Internet zone.

       

      If this fixes your problem, you're better off undoing this change, and moving www.runningahead.com into your Trusted Sites zone instead.

       

       

      Footnote: AFAIK, RunningAHEAD does not use java at all. It uses client-side javascript, which is a scripting language unrelated to java. The IE security zone setting "Active Scripting" is relevant to client-side javascript.

       

      (RunningAHEAD also uses serverside ASP.NET, as can be seen in the client side source if one is familiar with ASP.NET, but that is not necessarily relevant to client-side debugging.)

       

      Caveat: I don't think RA worked without scripting before, so this really doesn't work as an explanation if it worked up until the site redesign this past weekend.

      It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

        I had this problem too (only started today) but adding the site to my trusted site zone has fixed it!

        Thanks!

          I had this problem last night with Firefox (running XP).  I closed FF and loaded IE and I could post/reply.  Right now, I'm at work running Firefox (Windows2000) and, obviously, no problem posting.

            No problem with IE7 but FF 3.5.7 won't let me post, any idea on where to chagne the setting?

                  That's a clue!  Have you tried it on your home computer?  If you're having problems with your work computer, it is very likely that your company's proxy server is caching the old files.  It doesn't matter how many times you refresh your browser, the proxy server will continue to serve old files until it refreshes its cache.

                    Works fine at home with FF on my home computer. Must be he cache on the server here. Wonder when they clear it?

                      I'll look into versioning all the files so that every time I make a new release, the files will have a different name, which will ensure they won't be in the cache and thus this problem won't happen again.

                        Eric- Interestingly, I am on another computer at the company and it is working, so it has to be something with my computer.  Stay tuned.  My wonderful, great 2nd level IT person will work on it!
