Loving the new look guys, but it's not working (for me anyway) in Firefox 3. I try to open the front page and it just gets stuck at "loading" :(

Any chances one of you can have a look?

Did you adjust the bookmark? it should just go to http://www.terranbbs.net without the /phbb2/etc etc etc

I am using FF3.1 and its working fine for me, if it still gives problems then tell me what it does exactly. :)

OK, bookmarks changed, but still doing exactly the same thing - the status bar loads to about 2/3 then restarts - it keeps going in a loop. The screen is totally blank, nothing loads.

Thats so very strange, I myself can't think of anything causing that, do you have noscript running or anything else that could prevent the board from loadin?

Clear cookies, temp files etc.
if it still doesn't work ... download firefox portable v3
and see if that one works..
if it does you might have a add-on that is doing funky stuff.

I've added some possibly funky redirects, so it's quite possible that it's not your browser, but there's something that I don't quite understand...

If you can't open Terran, how can you post here?

Nope still getting the same problem even after clearing cookies, disabling all add-ons etc.

It does seem to be trying to access terranbbs.com and terranbbs.net when opening, so I don't know if that could be a cause.

If you can't open Terran, how can you post here?

Okay, I can't reproduce your problem, but I've changed something that might have caused this. Could you try again?

Works fine for me with Firefox 3.0.1
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.
