Re: Re: Voting and Cookies

I am using Dillo It is a simple browser, and I have set it to receive cookies from PM. It is the latest version, but I don't know much about it, because of tiny documentation...

My connection is through firewall. There is some proxy between me and the net, but I don't think this is the reason.

There is also a strange thing - I am invisible on the list of users. Sometimes I appear, and sometimes I disappear (-:

pfm, I took a look at Dillo, and their bug tracking system has listed that the browser has some trouble with forms, queries and cookies, all of which are essential to working with Perl Monks. I suspect that cookies are your problem. Cookies are not implemented the same way by all browsers, some of which will fail to return all of the cookies to the website when making a request. I don't know what operating system you are on, but Opera works under Win9x/NT and Linux systems. I suggest giving that a shot (however, I've found that "tweaking" the cookie filter in Opera will sometimes render Perl Monks inoperable ). Hope this helps and good luck! Update: The other users nodelet takes a little bit to push you in there. It keeps you in there for three minutes, as well, so you could technically load a page from Perl Monks every 3 minutes and rand(59)+1 seconds and never see yourself in the list. If a Monk falls in the Monastery... :) John J Reiser newrisedesigns.com	[reply]
