Forum not working in Firefox : /


Emz

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have got a problem getting this forum to load in my default browser which is Firefox and was wondering if any other people were having the same problem.

 

I'm currently using IE to view this forum. This was working in Firefox about 2 weeks ago, but now its not working, its just not loading up :(

 

I've cleaned out my cache and cookies and that don't appear to have fixed the problem. Firefox is working on every other forum that I go on, just not this.

 

Any ideas? :confused:

Try copying the address as it appears in the top slot on IE, then "paste" it into the address box on Firefox. This may "fix" AN's addy into Firefox and cure your problem.

 

I'm running FireFox with no probs ..

 

Let us know how you get on ...

Just tried that, still the same prob :(

The requested URL could not be retrieved

 

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.anglersnet.co.uk/ubb/ultimatebb.php

 

The following error was encountered:

 

Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.anglersnet.co.uk

 

The dnsserver returned:

 

Server Failure: The name server was unable to process this query.

 

This means that:

 

The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.

Check if the address is correct.

Thats the error message that I keep getting back.

 

Do you think re-installing it might make it work?

Yes, that has done the trick, thanks for the suggestion. Working fine in Firefox now, at last! :D

Hi Nick.

What does this do?

It clears where your browser thinks the site might be located and, therefore, makes it look for it again.

 

It's a bit like a severe 'refresh'.
