Am I the only one having this problem? Many times, when I click on a topic to view it, I get a loading message for a short time, then "Document: Done" at the bottom left area of Netscape, but have only a black screen with no messages on it. Still has the left side menu and top neo-geo.com graphic, but no window with actual posts.

I find that clicking back, and then forward on my browser will usually reload the screen properly, and all of the posts appear. This happens pretty often, just wondered what was wrong and if anyone else is having this problem? Is it a Netscape problem, UBB, or what? Anyone? http://www.neo-geo.com/ubb/confused.gif http://www.neo-geo.com/ubb/confused.gif

I'm using Netscape 4.7 on Win98 SE.

Ah, another Netscape compatibility issue. All I can do is recommend that you use the newest version of Internet Explorer. This will solve everyone’s problems with neo-geo.com for good! If you are running Windows, chances are you already have a version of IE installed. If you are Mac user, then no wonder you are having problems.

UBB boards are the most popular message boards in the world. I’m sure one of their top goals is to be as compatible as possible. The version we are using is but a month old.

Instead of access the message board through a frame, got straight to:
http://www.neo-geo.com/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi

This way you will always have the absolute URL in the location box. When you can not get a page to load, just hold down SHIFT and click on reload. That will also update a cahced page (It will call it from the server)
