h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I added some stuff to my page, and it won't save. I pressed update information, and it takes me to the updated page, but the url's different; its got ?s_fromedit=1 added on the end. Everytime I go somewhere else and come back, the page has reverted to its old stuff. How can this be fixed?

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, I didn't know where to put it

Not sure, the 'from-edit' bit is what you normally get when you edit a page.

it's also not showing updates on posting in my convos. T_T My compy/intranet hates me

"fromedit=1" is normal after a page has been updated.

Try reloading the page. That should solve the problem.

I tried, but to no avail. So instead i logged off the intranet all together, and logged back on. now everything is all betterer -^_^- TYVM for your assistance. I think it was just my internet stalling or something

"I think there is a word you use triggering the 'Filther', an build in genuine people personality factor into the version of the Guide-book as you are using has this behaviour to refuse some words.

You end up on a preview page

Rude or offensive words seem to trigger the 'filther' first but even combinations can get your posting rejected or lost. "

Various people have experienced caching problems like that.

You should first check whether your browser is set to re-load pages properly rather than cache what it thinks the contents ought to be. (NB the "fromedit=1" bit is a perfectly normal h2g2-ism.)

Failing a local problem (ie fixable on your own machine), you may be one of those unfortunate enough to be at the end of a chain of servers, one of which imagines it is being cunning (in internet bandwidth terms) by saving a copy of frequently requested pages instead of going and getting them anew.

lol darn GPPs mesing up my stay -^_^-
