Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    FORM ACTION="http://www.boards.ie/cgi-bin/bulletin/postings.cgi" METHOD="POST" NAME="PostTopic" as does every other entity with METHOD="POST" on their website. In fact I just participated[1].

    Some US government employee has patented "GET" and "POST" since he had a document dated 1992 explaining how to use them.

    See Slashdot

    btw it's supposedly an "international" patent, so therefore you are infringing. IANAL.

    Al.


    1. Note to muppet lawyers: I am under the influence of heavy doses of caffeine and not of sound mind and disposition.
