Area 51 bug?

Post by haravikk »

I'm not sure that this is a bug with the area51 forum, or it may have been but it is continuing to effect me. You see, I visited a while back and got a warning that my header information was too large (due to the cookies sent), figuring this was just a bug while updating something I waited for a while but it continues. The problem is that the basic style seems to be broken on the front page, changing page resulted in a too large header warning. I've gotten round the too large header part by deleting all area51 cookies, but the subSilver film is still messed up, I can however see the grey version in the testing subforum just fine. Has something changed about themes that could have caused that?
Images in sigs! please.

I was really just wondering if this header problem was caused by phpBB 2.1 or if it is a browser fault. I'm using Safari 1.0 and think Apple would deserve a bug report if it is in fact a Safari bug :)

I'm having similar problems. I didn't post about it, because the developers have requested we not post bug reports.

This is what happens (for me) - when I visit the site, all styles are missing. Then, if I try to click on ANY thing, I get an error page which says something about the information in my cookie being too long for the server to read (or something like that)

If I clear all cookies, and clear my cache, I can return and everything works normally for awhile - then it goes all crazy again.

I'm pretty sure the developers are aware there are problems - so I'm not going to dwell on it. I just posted to let you know that you are not the only one experiencing this sort of problem. BTW - I use IE, so it's not specific to your browser.

Hope that helps :)
