I am now proud to say that my windows computer now has Safari, IE, FireFox, Chrome, and Opera as of today.  And yet, Omnimaga has some deep issues with displaying stuff.

in IE: things are slow (but that's just IE for ya) and you cannot post anything into the omnomIRC.  It just won't do anything once I press enter or 'send'.  The text just stays in the input box.

in FF: things are all messed up.  While logged in, all it will display is the 'the coders of tomorrow since 2001' and the bar with things like 'search', 'forums', 'irc', etc.

in Chrome: Things show up nicely: except omnomIRC doesn't work.  Same issue as IE.  Plus, omnomIRC keeps flickering every 5 seconds witha refresh, and it's really annoying.

in Safari: same issue as FF.

in Opera: won't even load the page.


All I can say is, I started getting all of these problems sometime around 7-8 PM EST.  Maybe around 9.  But, if there were any server changes or such, or some other change to the site, whatever it was is kinda blocking me out of really using this site.

I use Opera and this web site works fine. It even works on my Windows 3.1 computer.

Hmm this is weird. Are you sure you really cleared your cache and cookies? Not sure if Netham45 did any change afterward, though. However, I suspsect that OmnomIRC highlighting and colored nicknames are at cause, or the new log parser is.

I'll disable OmnomIRC for you for a bit to see if it's the issue then you PM me.

Could you open this and tell me if it loads slowly too, in case it's the log parser? http://209.90.113.101/irc/EfNet/view.php?log=omnimaga&current=true

Could you post your computer specs?

However, I suspect you migth have gotten a virus... it's impossible that all of a suddent, you have so much troubles accessing the site other than the OmnomIRC change, but even then everyone else got no issue it seems.

OK, some more little advice before we start debugging:
= If problems still occur, restart the browser if you haven't already and try again.
= For Chrome or Firefox, disable all addons (for Firefox, try starting it in safe mode), clear all cookies and cache, and then start again.
= Enable Javascript on *all* browsers. Sometimes I disable it on purpose to test out my code sans JS, but forget to disable it and panic!
= If that didn't fix anything, disable Javascript. Yup, I'm saying that because sometimes, problematic Javascript may be the issue.
= Finally - do check for viruses. Yes, they can hijack your pages and screw it up big time.

If those advice didn't help... it's time to debug!
Go to http://withg.us.to/ua.php and copy+paste everything that you see there, and place it in a code or quote tag for us to view.

Well, my comp has better specs than that, it's not new, but it sure ain't a piece o' crap either

No idea the processor, but it runs on Windows Vista with 1GB ram, I know that much.

I'm in EST -- but also, omni has been hyper-fast for a long time now in FF X.x and still pretty fast in IE.

yeah, they're all updated X.x

And, good idea to rename the topic, now that we know the issue thanks again, DJ.

if it helps at all, it was working correctly at around 4:00 PM yesterday
