Hi,
Does anybody know why Internet Exploder won't load PayPals pages? It loads the headers but none of the rest. Makes paying for an auction kinda difficult. Thank goodness for Icab.
BTW I'm running OS 9.1 on B&W G3 900 & 350 using Exploder 5.1.7 with dial up ISP.
I've experienced some of this previously while using the "Pay Now" link but had no problem when I took the browser directly to PayPal. Now its all the same.
Nice service if it works but if they are going to cut off the MAC I'll go back to Money Orders.
TIA,
Tom
I have posted on this very subject more than once, and all I get is "try another browser". Why should I? The browser ain't the problem. Netscape won't load PayPal properly now either (B&W G3 Rev A OS9.2, IE 5.1.5, 5.1.7, Netscape 7.0.2).
I don't know what the exact technical reason for your problem is here but, WOW, your attitude! You want to stay with an OS and Browsers that have not been supported in years by their developers and then expect businesses to stay at that level of old technology even though most of the rest of the world has moved ahead? Encryption methods are/will be advancing for our benefit as well as HTML formats and other web content.
I suppose you get upset about those old VW parts not being readily available for you or outrageously priced when you can find them, too? And do you get mad when you can't find your favorite music on cassette tapes any longer?
IE will open eBay just fine, though.
Loading a page 20 times is "just fine" ?
Even in OS X on my iBook I occasionally have found that IE and Safari pages don't appear to load fully or at all. If I click and drag my cursor across the blank page everything appears magically. I have plenty of RAM (640 MB) so I don't know if it's a cache related thing or what. I use Firefox most of the time now and rarely have a problem.
In my opinion Netscape is awful. IE, despite being a Microsloth product, is pretty good.
Try to contact PayPal... you can't. There is no contact address.
There is but apparently you can't load it! <https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_contact_us>
Besides it's a crappy email web form page and you must be logged-in. Just for the hell of it try [EMAIL PROTECTED], just might work!

IE WILL do the job, but you may have to load each individual page up to 20 times before it will load fully. Infuriating? Bet your ass!!
