Upload Function Broken?
Posted: 07 Feb 2009, 05:08 AM

Hey, BK! It's been awhile but I just noticed that not only is the new version up but the search engine has been restored (which means maybe I'll start to get new comments again) AND... I also noticed the gallery limit has been increased from 100 to 300! Well, I was about to start putting up what the gallery has missed from the past 3 years but... When I try to upload ANYTHING, I get a "Site not found" error from MSIE. Well, that and the rest of my tabs stop working too and I have to close MSIE and start again. Did I miss something about the new system and am doing something wrong or...?

That is REALLY strange. I've never run into that kind of problem before. Which version of MSIE is it? And, when you get the MSIE "Site not found" error, what's the URL that your browser is trying to go to?

Version 7.0.5730.11 It's trying to go to http://www.side7.com/upload_image.cgim

And... The message I get is this:

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes: You are not connected to the Internet. The website is encountering problems. There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try: Diagnose Connection Problems

 More information 

This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Okay, I got it. It only freaks out like that with PNGs (even though the FAQs say they're acceptable), JPEGs upload fine.

That doesn't make sense. The error page is a DNS error, meaning your browser couldn't find the server. Not sure why a particular file type would cause you trouble.

We did massive testing with all file types and never ran into that kind of problem. I'll investigate further.
