Problem @ Rotten Tomatoes Forums

Post by **a13n** » Mon Apr 17, 2006 9:43 am

Hello.
I have a problem at a forum.
Its name is rotten tomato, a brother of fileplanet and q3w, etc, etc, etc, something like that.
I regiestered there and tried to post a reply but its message field does not accept any keystroke.
It behaves as if there is a transparent gif image pasted onto the whole field, blocking key input.
I tried both java script on and off.
No luck. }: 3~\
Has anyone here ever encountered similar problem?
Or do you know how to input at this forum?
Do I need macromedia plug-in as such?

Well, I've experienced many forums to have a visual anomaly with Firefox, the text input field does not flash input cursor, but you can nonetheless input keys.

I tried with I.E.5 and 6.
Still no luck. }-E
It seems something is embedded there.
Is there any restriction which prevents n00b to post a reply at specific genre?

if it's vb and it's a quick reply box you must click the reply button on one of the above posts to enable it.

I've already tried both quickie and non-quickie.
Now I come to guess that I need to enable java runtime.

By the way what I want to post is the following.
If you can post it for me instead with your user account, please contact me in this thread.

"Favorite Scene of Dawn of The Dead"

Code: Select all

My favorite scene is that that zombied2death'ed father's girl suddenly drives a truck to that weapon shop.
It was insane and umpredictable.
And though this is not actually a scene, I also loved people's remote talkng with cell phone between weapon shop and shopping mall.
It really stimulates audiences' imagination.

If you suspect it's java, are you running firefox and noscript to block javascript from running on the site?

Regardless you would probably wanna download sun's java, instead of using the ms vm version. Grab this and make sure ie/firefox/whatever has java enabled, and try your post again:

Not firefox but its parent.
And my sun java is old 1.4.2.
