Nicholas,

If I select the FoS link and hit Go, I get a DNS error.  I can 'hear' IE
switch page twice (I hear the little 'tick' sound twice).  IE is showing me
a 'friendly' status of "Cannot find server or DNS Error".

My ISP is REDNET, 128 Leased Line.  PC is WinXP, IE6 SP1.

Jon

Subject: Witango-Talk: Problems with HTTP requests using ADSL/Broadband


We have an HTTP redirect running on a popup menu on the site. It's been
there for 2+ years, and I've never seen it fail. Since switching broadband
providers, to NTL cable in the UK, it fails every time

Similarly, our HTTP image upload fails with corrupted images - even though I
can FTP or TB2 the images to the server successfully. I can also TB2 to the
server, launch a browser, and HTTP upload images to the server successfully!

NTL say they have tested the redirect with other ISPs and that it fails also
- but this directly contradicts my testing experience from the last 2+ years

It seems that NTL use caching for all images via Inktomi proxy servers and I
suspect this is the root of the problem

I'd be obliged if anyone in the UK could go to the Homepage, select a
destination from the "Navigate" menu (located top right) and report the
result

I need to know

* Success or failure?
* Error message (if failure)?
* Your ISP?
* Dialup / Broadband?
* Platform?
* OS?
* Browser?


The site is at http://www.bolide.co.uk



Many thanks
