Sometimes when I'm browsing the forums, I get a whole page full of something along the lines of this: "Wrapper script | > Script written by Matt Mecham | > Date started: 14th February 2002 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ //----------------------------------------------- // USER CONFIGURABLE ELEMENTS //----------------------------------------------- // Root path define( 'ROOT_PATH', "./" ); // Enable module usage? // (Vital for some mods and IPB enhancements) define ( 'USE_MODULES', 1 ); //----------------------------------------------- // NO USER EDITABLE SECTIONS BELOW //----------------------------------------------- define ( 'IN_IPB', 1 ); error_reporting (E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE); set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); class Debug { function startTimer() { global $starttime; $mtime = microtime (); $mtime = explode (' ', $mtime); $mtime = $mtime[1] + $mtime[0]; $starttime = $mtime; } function endTimer() { global $starttime; $mtime = microtime (); $mtime = explode (' ', $mtime); $mtime = $mtime[1] + $mtime[0]; $endtime = $mtime; $totaltime = round (($endtime - $starttime), "

....Why?

From my understanding, it's nothing to worry about. Usually just a quick refresh takes care of it.
My guess it that it's just a bit of a glitch in the forum software communicating with your web browser. I haven't had it happen since I switched to Opera, so you may want to consider that.

[Amber-Nicole]

Yep, refresh fixes it. I was just curious. Thanks Hecc. i might check Opera out, from what Zach says, it sounds pretty good.

[jyd]

i have, its nothing special i like ie

[Amber-Nicole]

I'm using Opera now. I like it, but I still get the page full of gibberish alot. ~shrug~ It's easy to refresh and fix it. I just have to go and be all nosey about it when I get wierd errors.

I'm on IE right now (not my fault) and refreshing doesn't solve the problem. I have to close the window and open a new one.

Firefox is far superior.... just for the sake of tabbed browsing.

Nicole won't use it though. Name is good enough. Spaz

[Amber-Nicole]

You mean isn't good enough? Opera is by far a more superior name than Firefox. And it has tabs too. So there.

EDIT:Fixed a typo.

I'd say that Opera tabs are better than Firefox tabs, because if you click this link in Opera, it will go smoothly into a new tab, whereas Firefox will launch a whole new window unless you do all that hard heavy technical stuff, like right-clicking and going to "Open In New Tab"...

I sprained my finger opening a new tab in Firefox once.

Bravo, Zach. See? Opera definately wins.

I abandoned Mozilla about a month ago. I started having a ton of problems with it. So far, Opera is my browser of choice.
And yes, AN, I had the problem you mentioned too. Right after I made that post, actually. It seems to have smoothed out though.

[SimeSublime]

Hmmm, I've never had any problems with IE, and can't really see the point of going to the trouble to get another browser.

[Heccubus]

Most of the problems with IE stem from the enormous amount of huge, gaping security holes that exist within every version.

[Ninja Duck]

Here's a list of known IE security holes. 56 known.

Ironically, while I was searching for this, I got my first "illegal operation; we're shutting you down, punk" message in Opera.
