I have no idea what happened to the DNS servers, but since I am on vacation I couldn't log into mybind.com. Luckily I remembered my registrar password so I switched to a new DNS server. Should refresh "soon" for everyone, or they can clear their DNS cache on their local machine. (run "ipconfig /flushdns" on windows machines.)

Sorry about that! 

And have a nice vacation! 

Yay... Except it seems that www. still doesn't work... Will have to work o that when I get home. 

I don't know a *lot* about DNS, but it looked like mybind.com decided it wasn't authoritative for celephais.net any more. 

www.celephais.net is now fixed.

Still never figured out what happened with mybind (i logged in just now and everything looks the same as it always looked) but the new DNS provider seems to be working so i won't worry about it. 

that had a list of all users currently online at the bottom of the page. Possible? 

http://www.celephais.net/board/faq.php and I consider it a privacy problem. 

But I also wonder why everyone is such a privacy hypochondriac nowadays. OMG someone can see that I was using the internet! THE IMPLICATIONS!

Yeah I realize that privacy is important. Just not everywhere. 

The preview function is great but when I'm previewing a post, there doesn't seem to be a way to verify which thread I'm currently posting in!?

The thread title could be displayed somewhere on the preview page. 

for the preview, it would be nice if the previewed post appeared exactly the way it would look if you had posted, so if there were 4 previous posts above and you preview a post, it'd show those 4 plus your own. 

dont need it, was just cool IMHO.

And I dont really see the privacy issue. But its not a big deal. 

I keep detailed records with my detail equipment. 

What about a "mark all threads read" button for registered users? 

good idea... you getting behind on your reading? 

Is there anything you can do to stop me getting logged out? I use lots of computers at home and work and at home I switch between a bunch of OSs too, so I am always getting logged out. Is there any way to keep the cookie or whatever valid on all machines or do I have to save password for this site? (I have that disabled normally so it only just occured to me) 

sounds like your browser are configured to delete the cookie. 

Isn't the FAQ wrong? Func doesn't need the referer, it's only looking for the cookie. 

yeah, i stopped needing the http_referer a while ago. forgot to update the FAQ.

regarding getting logged out, the cookie should last for about 2 weeks* from your last visit. So as long as you visit every 2 weeks with a specific device, you will stay logged in on that device.

*can't remember if it's exactly 2 weeks, but it's something like that 

Shouldn't logging out lead you to the main forum index instead of a blank page? 

logging in/out should just keep you on the same page (but it refreshes to indicate the new login state.)

I guess that feature does rely on the referrer, so if it's blank you won't go anywhere. 

With either Firefox or Opera. Just redirects me to the main site, cookie is set. 

FireFox works for me. Just FYI... 

Like internet explorer.

Anyway, Metl, is there anyway to stop these spam news submissions?? I'm having to reject them daily.

They're all signed with linseo34563blog (with varying numbers) so could you auto-reject linseo*****blog? 

a simple captcha?
