    Did GC.com change the profile page so you can’t add links from your profile? It seems to be stripping out my a href= tags leaving the link url as the text on the page.

    For example, it’s translating:
    GC15ZV5
    (Should show up as GC15ZV5)

    Into:

    http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=c1dd1af9-fd57-4ada-87c5-bb4532f2e131”>GC15ZV5

    This is making my stats page look weird. (Yeah, I know… I just opened the door to insult on that one.) Ok, it’s making the FORMAT of my stats page look weird. 🙄

    Um, that is weird. It is displaying correctly now. Yay!

    I didn’t have problems like this, but I do notice that when you go to your page that shows the breakdown of caches found/owned, they are in a different order than before. No biggie, but curious about that change.

    Is anyone other than me still having problems with GC.com? I can’t get search pages to come up without and error coming up. I lose the page to a IE error page. This happen I would say 9 out of 10 times I try to search. It doesn’t matter the search type either. When I refresh it always takes me back to page 1 of the search.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Yes, I am having the same issue as well. Hit the back button once or twice and it will display the search request.

    I was thinking it had to do with IE v7. I’ve been to lazy to see if it happens with other versions. I also have an annoying error pop up when I display a cache page from within GSAK or log a find and change the date.

    I (and some in my circle) had some problems about two months ago that sound similar to what you have described. I was using IE6 and had to upgrade to IE7 or FireFox to regain GC.com functionality.

    I am having the same problem. I updated to IE v.8. It did NOT solve the problem. It is very annoying.

    Yea I have two computers, one with each version and it’s driving me nutz! I need to keep IE for school as that’s what my online courses use!

    I use a PC periodically that has this same problem and it’s IE7/8. I think it’s a Active X / Java related issue, but haven’t figured out which yet.

    #1924617

    I might try chrome. I will keep you posted.

    #1924618

    I finally got annoyed enough to download a new browser. I find that Firefox works the best no error messages yet. It is also much quicker then IE.

    I did not like chrome.
