As I was just moving around the boards reading posts the purple error message appeared.

Tried hitting the back button and nothing happened then tried clicking the GR logo and nothing happened.

With all the problems some members are having with the new tree let's hope the error message problem hasn't returned.

Went to another thread, no reply box showing :-S :-S


Tried to move back 1 page (to p.4 from p.5)

Tried to move to p.1 in the thread

Opened another window in Mozilla Firefox, then went to Bookmarked genesreunited.co.za

I shouldn't complain as I missed all the trouble earlier this year.

What is frustrating, I went to send support an Email and the dreaded barracuda got me again.

Looks like my email address has been blocked again. Didn't last long.

Very pleased for you, Ken :)

Rather irritating for those experiencing the errors.


Using http://www.genesreunited.co.za/ now - okay so far.

Joy, I am sure I would have got error messages earlier, but now the site appears to be OK.

The fact that some of you are still getting errors tends to suggest that the error message has replaced the expected page in your browser's cache.

If you try F5 or CTRL F5 it might clear the error.

Changing to za and not getting an error seems to work because the browser thinks it is a different page as the url is different even though the data is the same.

Ken, I added stating that the error appeared with http://www.genesreunited.co.za/boards.page/board/suggestions/thread/1304872

No error appears on any other site irrespective of cache, broswer etc. :(
