Was happening to me over the weekend, but haven't tried it today.

Hopefully everything's fine now.

 

[Hawkian]

Yup, thought it was either me or Comcast.

 

[Busaiku]

Thought it was just Opera acting up.

 

[MIMIC]

Phew. So I'm not crazy (about this, at least)

 

[Freezasaurus]

I had the same issue, but strangely, it stopped happening on its own.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

I'm still getting it.

 

[LakeEarth]

I'm still getting it. I've just been waiting 5 seconds and then refreshing the page, the edit always takes.

 

[UrbanRats]

Me too, but when you click "save" if you then refresh the page, the edit it's there, so no big deal.

 

[freddy]

It's a real pain if you use the Quick Quote, Reply and Edit script.

 

[Mesoian]

It's been happening to me for a few days too.

 

[weekend_warrior]

You know what else sucks? The "Who Quoted Me" feature, it seems to work less then half the time.

 

[Delicious Waffles]

I've been experiencing this as well.

Only once in a while, it goes through without a problem.

 

[Espresso]

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

 

[Joqu]

I'm getting this too, I thought it was just me.

 

[Arcteryx]

Yea I thought Safari was acting up at first. Glad it isn't just me

 

[AstroZombie]

It just started working properly for me again

EDIT: just double checking

edit: nope, not in this thread

 

[Gromph]

Its a browser thing, not a GAF issue..

But i will continue investigating.

And 3rd edit without problem.

 

[CharlieDigital]

Its a browser thing, not a GAF issue..

But i will continue investigating.

It's manifest in the browser, but there is clearly an error in the GAF vbull scripts.

See error:

See error:

I see...

With no code change on gaf since... 6 months and now popping this error.

I will look into it anyway.

I will look

I traced the HTTP request and found this in the response:

<br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in <strong>[path]/includes/class_bbcode.php</strong> on line <strong>550</strong><br />

This is preceding the XML response and thus breaking the script because the response is no longer valid XML.

Here is the response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Wed, 05 Jun 2013 13:25:25 GMT
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=windows-1252
Connection: close
Cache-Control: private
Pragma: private
X-UA-Compatible: IE=7
Content-Length: 5097

<br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in <strong>[path]/includes/class_bbcode.php</strong> on line <strong>550</strong><br /><?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<postbit><![CDATA[<!-- post #61378789 -->

OTHER CONTENT HERE

</postbit>

A normal response should only have <postbit></postbit>

So I would check class_bbcode.php on line 550

It's not clear to me why it works after multiple clicks, but definitely something wrong on the server side code.

It's been kind of annoying but I wasn't even going to bother with it until I saw you locked the thread

 

[Alpende]

Happens to me too. I just spam the edit button and it works.

 

[BossLackey]

I'm having troubles today

 

[freddy]

Breakthrough?

Edit: Not quite ?

Edit2: Edit is working properly here after a few tests.

 

[LakeEarth]

You guys don't need to keep spamming edit, just press "save" once. The edit is working, it's just that the page isn't reloading.

EDIT - works half the time for me

 

[Coreda]

Having the same issues yesterday and today, thought it was my browser but reading this I'm not sure. Basically when the Save button is pressed the edit area sometimes doesn't respond and requires a manual page refresh.

 

[Woorloog]

Let's test this...

EDIT?

EDIT works now, apparently.

Still seeing this today.

 

[SteveWinwood]

I'm gonna test it!

Edit: Test!

2nd edit: It worked!

3rd edit: It didn't work on the 2nd edit

4th edit: Or the third

5th edit: Worked on the fourth though

It is definitely not your browser.

There is an explicit error in the server side code that needs to be fixed.

 

[Magni]

Was thinking of making a thread for this, I just repeatedly click on edit until it works.

edit: testing...

edit: still not complaining, I remember the days before Quick Edit after all, but it's still annoying.

 

[malingenie]

Yeah I havent been able to use this feature in a while.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

How did I not see this thread sooner?
Thought I was experiencing some weird bug in chrome due to conflicts between add-ons..

Now I just need to figure out what's wrong with YouTube and Steam, and all will be back to normal.

 

[Sinatar]

Happens on my work PC (IE7) and at home on Firefox and IE10.
