Having trouble staying logged in, in FireFox

Ben Hayat — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 21:55:40 GMT

I use FireFox 2.x and recently, the forum keeps logging me out as I go from one section to another. I can't even post a message, becuse it logs me out.

This problem has just started recently and I don't know why!

Thanks!

That's what was happening. After resetting the cookie, I plan not to go to the other site with FireFox. Seems like "Instant Forum" uses two different cookies for IE and FireFox.

They must use InstantForum as well. We have an internal forum that we use with our employees and I always have to manually re-login on that forum. Since I spend more time here, I choose for it to remember this forum versus the other one.

Ah, found the problem and solved it.

As I said before, I use the other forum to read stuff. Guess what, they both use the same cookie and since I had been to the other forum, the SF forum gets the data from that cookie, which is different than here, so it keeps kicking me out. I reset the cookie and I'm back in business. I guess I'm forbidden to go to the other one now.:)

Here is strage part. There is another forum that I read materials (related to Expression products)

http://forums.learnexpression.com/

And uses the same program and it "remembers" me the next time or when I go from one section to another. But somehow, the SF forum, keep loosing my identity between folders as well.

I haven't done anything about cookies, and still no luck!

Yeah, I can't reproduce it on this side either. I am not sure what the problem is.

I use FireFox 2.x exclusively and I've had no problems....at least not yet!
