Hi, I have successfully setup the genome browser with your help but I am facing problem adding custom tracks. I tried uploading a file, pasting data into the text area, and pasting URL of data file into the text area. In all the three cases, the page doesnot move to a different one and it stays in the same page while the loading wheel of the browser tab keeps moving as if it is loading something. Did someone report a similar problem before or do you have any idea what am I missing in making it work. The kind of file I am trying to upload is in proper BED format.
