refresh bug  -  @ 20:33:14 106
While all browsers support Last-Modified and ETag headers properly, MSIE seems not, it wouldn't let you refresh a page generated by b2 0.6.1. And that sucks, I know.
Here is the fix: clickie!
(This fix will be included in the releases asap.)

Thank you! I was trying everything last night to figure out why the page would not refresh! I had to clear my cache everytime I made a change. Now I know it's not me =-). Thanks for the fix.

it works for me without the patch (the page refreshes and change if modified) , I'm using Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)

I downloaded, installed and I love it!
But one thing bugs me, just anyone can post comments - even if they enter bogus information into the fields? I'd like them to register so I can at least know who they are and have some control other than just delete their comment...

Am I missing something? Or is this not in b2?

Is there a new version due out anytime soon?
Also, the forum signup seems not to be working properly.

You can edit your configure.php file to require people to register to be able to post comments.

Fix worked for me, I had to explicitly refresh with ctrl-f5 before. Thanks alot for the help!

if your browser is configured to check for a new version of a page every time it is loaded, you will not experience the refresh bug. the default ie settings cause problems, though.

just to clear the mystery.

I give up, Michel. Have a look in the database and pull the code out from there. You really should have support for code tags. You can't have it like this, this is a terrible security risk.

how does b2 exactly work? i heard it is quite confusing..but i really want to use it, does it come with a tutorial after you download it?
04.03.03 @ 19:24:41 058

 

gengar56 - email - url
It strips the tags out, so it isn't a "terrible security risk", trythis.

Anyway, b2 is amazing! I'm very impressed.

The latest download as of yesterday doesn't have this fix. It's easy to apply, though.

See my b2 blog at http://elliotl.tk

Will it let me do this?

The curren't release still doesn't have this fix (at least from the mirror that I used). It is kind of a pain to make everyone that downloads and installes B2 to update this rather then you just fixing it in the source.......

There is a Super refresh for MSIE if you hold the Ctrl key while pushing the refresh button, For those of you who didnt know, its not a commonly known thing.

To trythis:
Actually, PHP code is not executed at any moment, and it's not saved in the database at all. So, no security issue on that end. I actually explained a long time ago that there wouldn't be support for PHP instructions in posts and comments.
