I'm getting a permissions problem on posting.php when trying to reply to the Mazda6 thread. Trying to post here...

Okay, that worked. So why can't I post in that thread!?! Strange.

Maybe the forum thinks you might say something mean............. :lol:

How you been Donnie?

Donnie,

I don't think it is a permissions issue. There is nothing special about that forum or that thread. There is also a way that I (as an admin) can temporarily switch over to your permission definition and see how the forum looks/acts as another user. Assuming that works as designed, I was able to create a test post on that thread using your permissions.

Try it from a different device and see if you have the same issues. I also hate to throw out this suggestion as I hate doing it myself, but if it doesn't clear up... clear browser cache, delete cookies, blah, blah.

I logged out, dumped thscc.com cookies, and logged back in (which is what's worked in the past when I've had oddness with this site) and I still get:

Quote:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /forum/posting.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

when trying to post in that thread. Very strange. This is with Firefox 18.0.1 on an iMac.

Also happening when I try it from a totally different machine also running Firefox 18.0.1. So while it *may* be browser specific, it doesn't appear to be cache/cookie specific. *shrug*

copy the text into this post and see if it says the same thing.

Some words and combination of words will freak out the php program.

Yes. I didn't think of that. I have seen that happen before.

THAT'S IT!!!!!!! So very strange...I can't seem to see anything that would cause this in that post, but it sure as crap ain't working anywhere. VERY odd.

I dunno. I sanitized the heck out of it but no matter what even borderline thing, it wasn't happening. There was some weird combo in there. The post I finally made isn't that similar at all to what I was trying, but at least it posted.

*shrug*
