Weird phpBB bug ?

[JohnMurga]

Hey

I am not at home and tried to log into the board with the AOL browser at a friends house, and for some reason I was logged out right away ...

I don't know if it is phpBB or the browser, but I know this seems to have been happening to others (Barry?) ... What browser where you using ?

Either way ticking the :

"Log me on automatically each visit:"

Seemed to solve the problem on AOL ...

I haven't had any problems with Opera, Mozilla, IE, or Firefox.

How weird ...

Cheers
JohnM

I think it's the particular AOL settings. AOL errs in the side of caution. It may not be creating the session cookie (I assume it's a cookie) after you log in and for some reason it creates it when you select the automatic login.

Since my post in the Misc section hasn't received any replies, this looks like the best spot to post:

I cannot make any new posts or topics if I browse this site using the Lynx browser. I always get the following error:

No post mode specified

Oddly enough, Links doesn't suffer this same problem. I used to be able to post with Lynx all the time until recently. Disabling/enabling cookies doesn't change anything. Any ideas?
