This has been an issue since Fire Fox version 3. 0. 6.  I suspect we will not see a fix until HCL version 3.

Can anyone get firefox to load the back end?  The only way I've been able to get HCL to work on my server is using IE7 in both the front and back. . .

Well, after a bit more digging. . . .

Our dedicated server has really been "slugging" lately so I finally called the support people to see if they could figure out what was going on. 

Now I'm no server guru but they told me that there was a lot of activity with open connections on the web process (?) and it was probably due to a script (not a hacking script) running on my server.  I questioned them about the chat software and told them it was a php script.  They said it was a good chance that it was this.

So I disabled HCL on my site, rebooted the server and guess what, everything "seems" to be fine again.

Can anyone shed any light on this? Anyone experience something similar? I LOVE the chat software but this is a deal breaker for me (not that there is a deal here but you know what I mean, lol).

Thanks,

DaK

daemonkin: Please do not hijack threads, this is an issue that is (mostly) unrelated to your issue if I understand you correctly, and you already have multiple threads (and PMs) regarding your issue.

Admins/Mods: If I am overstepping the boundaries, please let me know.  But I am just trying to help clean this place up and assist the community, so I gotta say something

The code posted on this board should fix the issues in all browsers on Windows and Linux for both operator and client, which fixes one of your problems (@DaK & @kdebs), however the issue of it causing massive thread usage is another issue.  I haven't delved into the code too much, but it sounds like one php script is either calling another, which calls another, etc. . .  or javascript is making too many calls when you try and connect/go online.

Now, you say it stops loading when it gets to that graphic, which leads me to expect that the button format you are using is bombing your server with threads.   What code are you using for the button?
