Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

So I run XP and Vista (still need to upgrade vista to W7, but too lazy and cheap right now with all the money spent on my car)...but for some reason the shoutbox won't load on my XP partition. It loads fine on XP at work and vista at home but not XP at home??

What plug ins does the shoutbox use? Something I need to update maybe?

And I don't use vista for anything really, I am always on XP as I like it way more.

Helps me!

EDIT: Seeing as how this site has a huge percentage of computer guys/IT guru's I figured this should be an easy one.

I am more hardware than software lately so I am rusty at this shit.

That's peculiar since I think it is a PHP script. Have you tried an alternate browser like Firefox?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

I am using firefox, always have.

I tried Explorer and safari...same shit..it just sits there trying to load. It's very strange.

chrome?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

LOL, I don't want to have to use a different browser. It has always worked fine here, it stopped suddenly. I know firefox isn't the problem as I use that at work and on my vista partition.

Paybanned from the SB only?

Edit: I guess you'd be banned from it at work too. Oops, I'm an idiot. :D

It sounds like my school computers... I know that is in no way helpful to you, but I think its an IE explorer problem. Does firefox share any of the scripts and what not with IE?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Nope, like I said it works on my Vista partition and at work on XP there.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Not sure, but to me it feels like i need to update some shit or something...it has to be something stupid.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Update your activex controlers? Maybe Java just in case?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

I think its my java update, checking that out now.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Yep, java update didn't work either...hmmm, this sucks.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Weird man.... what controls .php scripts??

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Nothing, should be all browser. No java or anything. Try adding mitsustyle to the trusted sites (tools->internet options->security->trusted sites-> sites...->add) and also try doing windows update tools-> windows update.

Wait, it doesn't even work in firefox?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

nope firefox isn't working its weird as hell.

It works fine on firefox at work and on vista...so strange.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

The shoutbox is a Javascript app, make sure you have full JS rights enabled within FF. Will the shoutbox function under IE on your XP partition?

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Boobs.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

I concur.

Re: Shoutbox not working on my XP partition??
 

Nope, no browser i have tried works on my XP one.

I 3rd this :)
