Does this[^] load for you?

Let me get back to you on Monday about that.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
--Zachris Topelius

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
-- Sarah Hoyt

That did; but the forum/main page are still showing unstyled HTML in any browser other than IE. (And as mentioned before I have this problem with a number of other sites, so while I appreciate your help I'm doubtful it's something you can fix short of dropping your CDN (which I wouldn't expect you to do.) It's something screwed up with my profile and work's proxy that they can't figure out and can't offer any solution short of wiping my computer and giving me a new profile. Dead | X|

)

Interestingly, while htat image loads on its own it doesn't show up on the broken page anywhere, although some graphics do. Looking at the blockable items in ABP (with filtering disabled) I am getting stuff from your CDN itself now (which I wasn't before); so it's at least marginally less broken now even if something is still failing that's keeping the site as a whole from actually rendering properly.

I'm getting a bunch of images and what look like the main css[^] and javascript[^] files along with an old version f of jquery[^]; but whatever is supposed to trigger applying them to the bare HTML is still not executing.

This is what I expected.

The image is served from CacheFly. The main site is currently running on Amazon Cloudfront.

Given that the image works I'll switch the site over to Cachefly and we'll see how you go.

I hope this change was planned independently of hoping it would mitigate my messed up work PC problems. IF not ... OMG | :OMG:

It was. I'm not particularly happy with Amazon's performance or pricing. I want to try other options to see how the competition fares.

Can you please try RootAdmin[^] and let me know if that works? It's using the new CDN.

cheers

Chris Maunder

Still broken, but it looks like I'm still getting sent to crowdfront. DNS caching fun to blame?

Must've been a caching issue. I'm getting a working page that's targeting the cachefly CDN now.

Excellent. If RootAdmin is working for you then I can move CodeProject over to the same CDN and we'll be gold.

So how many weeks have I been using IE at work when I didn't have to. Sigh | :sigh:

Only about a week.

...when they find CP is read only? Laugh | :laugh:

But come on, Chris - surely it all fits on a 3.5" floppy? Two at most.

See the new sticky at the top of the page...

Aha, didn't see that. I looked everywhere except for stickies.

AAAaahhh!!! The world is going down!!!

I just heard the voice from "JimmeCode", "NoEffort" tags Laugh | :laugh:

I take it you mean the morons who keep tagging questions with "NoEffort", "IAmLazy" and other pointless and rude monuments to their own arrogance?

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Exactly, I don't know why these people don't even try to fix the problem on their own.. Before posting it on CP. Poke tongue | ;-P

Because some of them are confused by the scale of the problem (as they see it) and have no idea how to proceed. It's "rabbit-in-the-headlights" syndrome - and just being rude to them and closing the question doesn't help them at all. Remember when you were just starting?

All it does is feed the egos of the morons writing the rude comments.

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Agree! That is why when I come across one.. I provide hints, which leads to the actual solution Poke tongue | ;-P

Being rude to them adds to the problems they are facing and demoralizes them.

Now, I genuinely feel the need of a "Like" and "Dislike" button on comments in Q&A. Just to intimate people when they turn rude and appreciate people who genuinely help. Smile | :)

We're moving to a new hosting centre tomorrow morning and as part of the move we need to switch to read-only while we move our data. During the move the site itself will have no downtime: you'll still be able to browse and read. It's just new content and content updates that will not be possible.

There are obviously ways and means to move masses of data from one system to another without needing to lock down the database but they would have made the move longer than necessary, and are silly expensive. By Saturday evening (again, US Eastern) we'll be back in business and you can post again.

[Edit: all done]

cheers

We appreciate the hard work.

Can we watch it on TV?

While moving last weekend, I found my Star Trek Font Packs, from 1993. I have now copied the content of the 3.5" floppies to a safer place. Jig | [Dance]
