The idea used to be that cookies were bad, but in fact they are an amazing tool and much of the functionality of the web is now dependant on them. Yes they can be used for tracking, but there are other tricks to do that too. I would say the benefits of cookies far outweigh the disadvantages. -- funkstar '[project log] funkstars digital lifestyle' (http://forums.hexus.net/hexus-lifestyle/179882-project-log-funkstars-digital-lifestyle.html) - 'hexus.community' (http://forums.hexus.net/) *in use:* *1*x touch, *1*x boom, *2*x sb3, *1*x controller *in a box:* *1*x radio, *1*x (beta) controller, *1*x receiver, *1*x sb2 wired (silver), *1*x sb (black), *1*x slimp3 (with rear shield) if you have any others, let me know, i'm interested!! funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80985 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SBS 7.5.1 - Is it really this broken?
Switching to Chrome was actually a great suggestion. It helped me solve the problem with Firefox. I did a fresh installation of Chrome. No cache, no cookies, right out of the box. When I set it up I checked "Block sites from setting any data" to eliminate sites from setting cookies. I entered the url address for Squeezebox Server and got the SAME problems that existed in Firefox. Just for the heck of it, I changed the data setting to "Ask me when a site wants to set data". I refreshed the page and sure enough, SBS wanted to set a cookie. After allowing it, the web interface worked perfectly. I then went back to Firefox and allowed SBS to set cookies. Now all of the functions work fine in Firefox. Who would have thought that cookies were the cause? Thanks for your suggestions guys. They were a big help in working through the problem. -- Skipperrik Skipperrik's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5208 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80985 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

If you can't solve it, switch to Chrome. ;) Seriously, I switched after years of being a diehard Firefox user and I doubt that I'll ever look back. Every once in a blue moon I'll have to use Firefox for a site that doesn't work right in Chrome, and it now feels like bloated crapware worthy of Microsoft. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80985 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Just on the off-chance that the cache wasn't cleared completely in Firefox, try loading the main page of the web skin, then use Ctrl-F5 to reload it from freshly retrieved files. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80985 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SBS 7.5.1 - Is it really this broken?
I've cleared the cache in Firefox, disabled all the plug-ins and got nowhere. I did however use IE to open Squeezebox Server and things seem to be working fine there. It's definitely a Firefox issue but I don't have a clue what the fix is.

Try another browser. Then to get it working in Firefox, maybe clear Firefox's cache, or disable Firefox addons until it works once again. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80985 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
