| | Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | Don't see the "next page" link. (?)

| | Re:(1)Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | this has happened to me from time to time.
Very annoying. What I've done it reply to the thread with something like "ignore this", then it takes me to my post which is on the next page. |

| | Re: (2) Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | Hmmm ... that got me another ten posts (still on one page), but still not all the way down to the bottom. |

| | Re: (3) Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | It seems to be only the Santa thread that is doing this. I can still get to the bottom of other threads. |

| | Re: (4) Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | I've had this happen once in a while. I can usually get around it by posting a "test" to thread which takes me to the last page, reading the thread, and then deleting the test post. |

(Couldn't even see it, much less delete it.) I think I was able to get as far down as post # 20 (which was truncated) on the second try, after I posted -- first try it was something like post # 10. All of this was on one page (I have my pages set to display a lot of posts -- I forget exactly how many). Quote: | Curtis said

| | Re: (6) Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | Just tried it again. I can get as far as post # 10, then it shows the header for post # 11, but not the post itself, and there's nothing underneath it -- no post box, no nuthin'. |

| | Re: (7) Can't get past the first page in multi-page threads | | Emma - sometimes when that happens with me, I turn off my AT&T Worldnet Accelerator; that seems to make a difference when I'm trying to view a thread or email that's got a lot of graphics content or a huge graphic. If you're using AOL accelerator or some other internet accelerator (netzero has it too, I think, for example), try turning it off and refreshing the page.

I've got Earthlink accelerator -- turned it off, and now I can get the whole thread. Thanks. | |
