But what's the point? Even if I created a feed, nobody would realize that it even existed.

Why wouldn't they - surely you would link it somehwere for all to see... or are you saying RSS is so underused it's not worth it?

That brings me to news_rss.php which Firefox just wants to bookmark - but where is the actual .RSS feed that I could add to a reader?

You failed to understand. The news_rss.php which Firefox just wants to bookmark actually works fine as it is a proper rssfeed.

I'm not sure that it does, but I'll find out. I can change the extension if necessary.
News Archive
the "news archive" link doesnt seem to be working, at least for me. : /

There seem to be a lot of complaints from some people about not being able to load certain pages, such as the entire general thread, or the archive threads.
I wonder if some proxys/ISPs/something else have some sort of max page size? The news archive is 313K, maybe that's too big.
Can you view the discussion archive, or "all posts" from any large threads?
I Also Can't

from beginning seems to at least start loading properly (I didn't wait for all to load).
Hmmm....

i've been assuming it had to do something with the total page size. perhaps the the cause is something on the pages themselves, such as a special character that breaks the page. Could this be related to the default character encoding that browsers use, maybe?

Maybe it also have something with the navigator configuration: I have firefox at office and at home, but as example, at office I can't view all the News archives when at home it is possible... and my personnal PC is not a 'running' machine....
Weird

what happens if you try this link?
http://www.quaddicted.com/webarchive/www.celephais.net/board/view_all_news.php
Or try downloading the page with something else than your browser and open it then.

It works fine... but from the Func_ link it crashes claiming:

the first error message is now that there's an ActiveX control on the page that cannot be executed due to my security settings (I've that disabled).
Is this some sort of hijack thing?

It took so damn long to load I may as well have just gone to the site, which I was going to do anyway to check the message boards, and since we only get one item of news around here a month it was probably the most pointless exercise in which I've ever partaken.

what could be causing the inability to load the News Archive or View All Threads? It still doesn't work for me and I've tried disabling any filter I normally use.
It's not a big issue, but it'd be nice to know what's causing it.
