Problems in posting

Post by Rhoel »

Not sure why but I have just experienced a 'posting forbidden' in the script section. the message was you do not have access permission to /forum/posting.php

Not sure why. Is there an forum software upgrade happening today? Anyone else had the no=posting message?

I have no problem with posting in Scriping Area. Maybe you are behind a firewall?

It was something in the post itself! After it failed three times, including a log out/log in, I rewrote the post and it worked okay. There was reference to php and MATH functions in the text so it might have somehow clashed with the SSI.

Back to normal again, just one of those things.

I had the same problem when I mentioned a programming language which is also the name of a snake..-ython.

Normally to avoid a conflict you use the

Code: Select all

 code
quotations, to prevent any upset of the page comment

Technically, writing <?php echo "hello"; ?> shouldn't cause any issued because the < is represented by the < character.

My guess is occasionally there is a work/letter combination which passes a php control character to the server, causing it to have a moment.

Just one of them things.

this was the original post which caused the problem - and yes, it has the p word in it.

Addendum

Not sure that I'm allowed to swear on this board but KNICKERS!

Just did a test - my worst fear is borne out - the cameras XZ coordinates are independent of the rotation. So as the camera rotates the L-R axis becomes a Forwards-back motion.

That means we have to build in a rotation calculation, adding a Z increment, subtracting a X increment as the camera rotates. This is going to be fun. Looks like a straight Sin calc. Still, it will be fun to figure it out ... as if I didn't have anything planned for the next month :-)

I'll see if I can generate some graphics to demonstrate this. It is actually simple but it just sounds complex.

Might have to wait 24 hours before starting the calculations - I am still on the laptop - the main monitor blew last night ... all the #ython stuff is on the other machine.

quick test

... the oithon stuff is on the other machine.

Mention of the P word generates the following message.

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /forum/posting.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
