The little dots keep going around & around in a circle..
« Reply #15 on: August 26, 2007, 11:37:52 AM »
Okay, I'm paying more attention to the status bar.  I get the "Waiting for www.assoc-amazon.com..." a lot.  I also get "Read www.subgenius.com" for this thread, and right now, as I am typing, and the circle of life keeps going round and round (as Joni Mitchell put it so nicely), the status bar reads "Read wwf.fornits.com"... whoops!  Now its on the "Waiting for www.assoc-amazon.com..." line again...

That thing in my sig is from subgenius.com.

Anyway, it stopped doing it now (the pages are loading normally, like right away.)

I see the problem. Look in the status bar at the bottom (if you have that turned on... I think the option is under view) Does it say something about waiting for Amazon.com something? That's not anything to worry about. I have an Amazon associates script that will try to load even if you don't have java turned on. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. It doesn't do anything really vital, just makes amazon links do that pop up thing.

yeah you'll see that on occasion rarely causes problems though even if "connecting", just an FYI.   was it just momentary?

amazon seems to cause more issues then google..

and if we arent displaying amazon stuff, then why is it waiting on amazon..?? ginger?

So far I haven't seen it again, but I don't remember to look every time either.

That one caught my eye.  Even if I hadn't been 'on the lookout' at what was there.  But Google analytic?  WTF is that?


Then again, I have been a tad bit on edge lately.

Well that was mainly intended for the Feed Your Head forum. I used to go in and add links to any book or video mentioned there. And then there were the plugs in the banner for HAAC, Generation Kill and occasionally others.
