Problems uploading images

ChrisHall

This one is for Ken (or anyone with the same problem)

I am experiencing problems uploading images to the site.

I have filled out all the mandatory fields, then click on "Submit" then page freeze's.

All other aspects of the site are working OK, it is only when I try to upload an image I have the problem.

cheers

It must has something to do with recent improvement. I need more info to debug. What kind of browser you are using? Uploading in member section? Have you tried a few more times?

I am using Firefox and have had no problems uploading photos since the update.

Thanks Ken!

downloaded and installed Firefox

then tried to upload an image and the page froze, with an error message

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Script: http://www.airport-data.com/js/jquery.tools.min.js

if I tick the " dont ask me again " box, then click on "stop Script" the image will upload

cheers

Looks like an isolated incident. I have tested the script using Firefox 3.6, IE 6 and IE 8. All works fine here. The script mentioned by Chris is for form validation, an open source script found on Internet.

I will use the error message to look around and try to find some info.

Hi Chris,

Using the info you provided, I made a little tweak on the upload page (in member section only). Please try again and let me know the result.

Looks like an embedded java script or jar file is corrupt or misconfigured on Chris's

machine.

I'd un-install all java jars and the app. Then reinstall with the latest version (runtime NOT the SDK). I would also turn of java's auto-update. (auto notify OK to leave on.)

Just my 2 cents...

Hi Ken

I have tried what John has suggested and also tried uploading with a different PC

Ken, I too am having problems uploading from the member page. When I hit submit a little red box pops up to the right of my web address that says "Please enter valid URL". From here I can do nothing but exit. I am using IE8 and had no problems around May 26-27 when I last uploaded.

I just finished doing three 'test' uploads using, three different browsers;

Internet Explorer Version 7.00.6000.17023

Mozilla Corporation - Firefox Version 3.6.3

Opera Internet Browser Version 10.53

No issues or errors encountered with them.

I do not have the following microsoft hotfix installed:

Q956844 (KB956844) DHTML ActiveX control (this hotfix breaks my html scripting editor in Alpha-Five)

Other systems specs:

Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (build 2600)

Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U20 Version 6.0.200.2 JRE 1.6.0

shockwave active-X vers. 11,5,2,602

I just tried mine again and I still get the same message box telling me to "Please enter a valid URL" which pops up beside my Web Address box which is not even a mandatory field.........

Did you enter anything in the "web address" box? It should not prompt you if you leave it empty, as it's not mandatory. If you entered your web address, try to put "http://" before the address, i.e., instead of "www.airport-data.com", enter "http://www.airport-data.com".

I am testing another form validator and will replace current one shortly after.

I just updated the site with a new form validator. Please report any bug here.

Thanks John. I develop the site using Firefox (3.6 now) and test it with IE 6, sometime with IE 7. It is really a pain to deal with IE browsers.

Ken,

What ever you did fixed it for me. As far as the web address my personal web address shows up here and it did include the http://. I just uploaded 4 new pics with no trouble. Thanks for all your hard work on this and everything. I really enjoy this site.....

i think this board uses BBcodes for links, images and others i think.

if that's not the problem, maybe if others have problems with uploading images, you can follow the resolved issue last page.
