Default Re: PBW incompatible with IE 6 SP 1?

Could you point me to some other web sites that use a similar coding mechanism? That way, I can see if the problem is just with PBW, or if it is with all instances of that type of coding.

I haven't had any problems on PBW using Mozilla 1.1, but I almost exclusively use PBW's text AI. I only recently switched from Netscape 6.2.1, which could handle the text UI as well.

I use IE 5.5 when I have some reason to use PBW's graphic UI.

I greatly prefer the GUI, myself. The "text" Version works fine.

I have no problems connecting to the GUI PBW using Mozilla. 6 months ago it had problems but not any more.

PBW Admin Team - Thanks for the great site & Keep up the good work

I haven't had any problems yet with IE6 SP1, but I only upgraded a couple of weeks ago.

LL mentioned cookies, and IE6 has an additional tab under Tools--> Internet Options called Privacy that controls how cookies are handled. The Edit button at the bottom of the tab can be used to set cookie policy for individual websites. You might try allowing all cookies from seiv.pbw.cc.

Also, what OS are you using, IF? Depending on the OS, somewhere under File Types there's an option to always download or always launch a particular file type. You may need to go in there and set .jsp's to always open (though that could be dangerous on other sites), or at least not automatically try to save.

Trying that now... didn't work.

2000. But, that couldn't be the problem. I haven't changed the file types recently, and installing IE 6 SP 1 wouldn't do that any differently than installing IE 6 did, and the site ran fine under IE 6.

Crud. Hmm... if you clear your temporary internet files again, does the site work properly? If it does, you can set IE to automatically clear out temporary internet files when you close it, under Internet Options--> Advanced under the Security heading. 'Course, this may be a pain if you have a slow internet connection....

If all else fails, you could try reinstalling IE. Something that's worked for me for strange IE-related problems is to refresh all components of IE. Run IE setup, choose a custom install, then select all components, even the ones in bold that IE claims to not need to be updated.
