Hello.

Further to the problems we were having a few weeks ago, we've been working on a new system architecture and it's now (I think) ready for some load testing.

Functionally we've been using it for the last week, and it's identical to the live site: running from the same databases (so the bulletin boards on it have live data, and any posts made to them appear on the main site etc etc)

If you would like to test this new site, you'll need to do the following:
Delete your MoneyAM cookies from your browser (in Firefox you can do that from the Tools/Options/Privacy menu, in IE the easiest way is to 'delete cookies' from the Tools / Internet options menu (note: you'll delete all your cookies this way!))
Point your web browser to: http://test.moneyam.com/
Start using that site.


The deleting of your MoneyAM cookies is vital, else you won't be able to log into the new site (you'll keep getting directed back to the login screen).

Also, if you then want to start using the main site again (http://www.moneyam.com), you'll need to go through the delete cookies routine again. Due to them running different software versions, the cookies are not compatiable.

If this sounds like I'm trying to put you of testing, then I'm sorrry, but I need to make the limitations clear to mitigate lots of questions along those lines.

If you do decide to test the new site, please post below so I know you're doing it and post any feedback that you may have (any errors you get for instance)

Many thanks,
J.

Ps: this post was created on the test site, as proof they're running on the same backend databases.

Well I was still waiting for JT to tell me what to do with my cookies.
But I've just stumbled upon 'My Very First Cookie Book'.

Gausie,

There are a few errors in our moneystyle.css file. I was meerly defending the validity of 'px' as a unit size.

It will be the slash that's causing the problem there, I'll have it fixed and a new copy couriered over to you right away :P

We do like to be abused here, so it's disappointing not to have any directed at myself :(

Are there any other problems you're seeing, other than CSS ones? :)

only in attitude

:o)

ps - before you ship me the tomy book, what does it say about slashes? or color codes?

Gausie,

It says that slashes and color codes without hashes can be used as browser hacks to get things displaying correctly on mobile devices.

heh.

I have stockwatch open in FireFox in Test mode,when i click on the RTR news flag,nothing happens,but when you click it in normal mode its OK,is this a problem you are aware of ???

Mega...

Jon,

I logged in on the test server between 9 and 10 this a.m. I've just refreshed the Traders' Room thread list and had to re-logon. Looks like we may still have that problem.

Derek - dropped you an internal email

Oowaa QI will ring G

MightyMicro,

If you've _only_ viewed PHP pages, then the login problem persists. When you hit a java page, the session's refreshed.

I'll be looking at a way of making the PHP pages reactivate the java session next week.

J.

MegaBucks,

It looks like you've only got popups enabled for www.moneyam.com and not test.moneyam.com

I've tested the 'N' flag on RTR using FF with the popup blocked completely disabled and it's fine...

J.

Jon,

That would be it then. I did invoke stockwatch, but it was early today.

Cheers

D.

Still get those boxes around stockwatch and the ads

Errrrm...What's going on here? What's happened to my web site?

Iain,

'still'? I can't see where you've complained about it on this thread? Could you post a screenshop please, I think I may be missing something :)

thanks,

J.

Indeedy JT - sounds like you're a few window displays short of a screenshop :)

chocolat,

:P

It was on the bugs thread.Others have the same problem
"Not sure if its an unintended bug or a clever enhancement, but.......
When i open Stockwatch and roll my mouse over the watch list, the list gets surrounded by a hatched line. If i then click anywhere on the list it automaticly centres itself on screen. Saves me having to scroll, but I've never seen it before."

Iain,

That sounds like it may be a feature of the JVM or something, it's not something that I've seen anywhere.

Very bizarre. What java virtual machine and version are you running?

J.

Um, that hatched line and centering behaviour, isn't that something to do with a recent upgrade "enhancement" to IE? (Iain, I assume you're using IE . . .)

Yes. IE7
