Does anyone else surf these boards with Mozilla?

This is the only site I have problems with - the cookies and forms. Every time I click on a topic, I am prompted for my profile; whenever I try and create a topic, a drop-down of prior post titles comes up as my profile. Mozilla seems to confuse my forms and cookies?

If anyone has suggestions, I'd love to hear them. No way in hell I'll ever go back to MS IE!

Thanks.

I use the boards with Mozilla 1.2.1. Haven't noticed any issues thus far, although I do not log in while surfing the board.

What version of Mozilla are you using? Have you tried uninstalling (and removing all config files) and then reinstalling the latest release?

Ditto, I've actually used Mozilla 1.0 for Linux and 1.2.1 as well as other gecko browsers like Netscape 6.2 with no problems. Check your saved passwords and see if you have multiple saved entries for discoweb.org. If so delete the others and keep only one.

Ho offered some advice via email (thanks Ho!). I believe the problem was I had two profiles saved as Al mentioned. I deleted one and it seems to be working fine for me now. This is on Mozilla 1.1.

Thanks for the advice!

<edit: as soon as I posted this, it started again. I may just do a fresh 1.2.1 install anyway.>

I used to have a similar problem with 1.1, and not just with DiscoWeb. Solution was to delete all of the profiles for the site and then create a new one. I don't think an upgrade to 1.2.1 is going to help, since it would more than likely be using the same profile as the older version.

Todd you are 100% correct. I deleted both of the profiles and all cookies for DiscoWeb and it's working perfectly now.

I may do a 1.2.1 install anyway.

Mozilla is great.. the only problem I’ve ever had is that the back button doesn’t seam to always work while browsing the forms here. Not too troubling but kind of weird.

I've ran into the back problem but not with the button. It's been with the right click and then selecting back. But only here. I don't know if it's Discus or Frontpage.

I use Mozilla 1.3a here with no problems, even the back button on my mouse works.
