A Question re 'Poly problems
Is anyone else having this trouble?

I open the last page in a series and get:

Quote:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/apolyton/public_html/forums/global.php(439) : eval()'d code:179) in /home/apolyton/public_html/forums/showthread.php on line 215
with a blank page, and the "done" comment on my lower left internet taskbar.

However, if I open the first page in the series, it opens, then I click on the >> and it moves to the last page which opens.

Most frustrating

Or is it just me?

It is also me. There is also a problem reading posted turns. If you click on it and open it, it takes you to the turn as entered in a wordbook file. You have to click save target as, and save it as a webpage, then switch it to a zip file and unzip it to get the turn.

Hmm - still doesn't work for me. I can save it as a web page, but how, specifically, do I "then switch it to a zip file"?

Right click on the file and scroll down to 'properties'. In the 'general tab', below the filename, there should be an 'opens with:', showing "internet explorer". Click on the change button next to it and change it to 'WinZip Executable'. Then extract as normal.

Or if you have file extensions showing just change the last few digits to .zip.

Edit: This is all for Windows 2000. Should be the same/similare, for most windows systems. If you use Linux/Mac/BSD then I have no idea I'm afraid.

Hmm - still can't make it work - I can save it and then get to the 'properties" and change the 'opener' to zip executable', but zip doesn't recognize it as a zip file (or even as an "all files").

No matter, I d/l'd the Hive's end-of-turn save (which of course, on turn complete, is the Uni turn I was looking for

I'm a winXP user, but that shouldn't have made any difference - i'm just doing something dumb, I reckon

I see from the Community Forum thread that MarkosG has now solved the problems - multiple page threads now load at the last post, downloads are back to their traditional zipped style, etc etc
