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

Hello .

I need some help. I started a thread in <./>askh2g2</.> yesterday asking a question. But now when I attempt to enter it I get a 502 error (I'm a digibox user).
Typical this is the one thread I need . Anyone know how to tackle this problem? or if the thread will stay unaccessable?

I think this is the thread
F19585?thread=306382&latest=1

it should be entitled 'Calling all alcoholics...help!'

Thanks

Hello Xian. Askh2g2 has been a problem before for digibox users because it has so many threads and so too many links in the plain skin. That is the right thread and you had 13 replies when I looked.

Are you on a plain skin or box friendly skin

if there is so many thred
in plain it will not let you get into it but box friendly will i have box friendly on my page

Some of the replies are quite long but I wouldn't have thought there was enough text, smileys or other links to prevent access. Try this link just in case it makes a difference: <./>/dna/h2g2/plain/T306382</.>

What is the box friendly skin?
I have plain skin.

SEF

Don't suppose I'll see the replies

Hi Xian

see if you can get into these

F19585?thread=306382&skip=0&show=5
F19585?thread=306382&skip=5&show=5
F19585?thread=306382&skip=10&show=5

Don't know if it will work but it is worth a try


But it could just be that H2G2 it playing up yet again

Box friendly the back ground is gray

And one with loads of smileys

SEF

You're a , yep it worked...thank you .
I only wanted a few names of ales,stout ect...not a bombardment of every drink known

Hi everyone.

Xian: A 502 error is the h2g2 servers, I tried the link and it works fine, just try again.

Manda

Yep all fo them links work, so how comes the one I posted doesn't work but others do?! .

Kow

Nope the first one still give me a 502, Manda and SEF's links work though

Intern

Oh yeah...I have the skin then

Yeh i got in fine

Intern

Try the thread link in first post...does that one work properly with your box?

I will try it

Its works fine on my box. If it was the box it would crash.

Oh well...at least I can get into there now

The only difference between the plain skin version of Xian's link and mine seems to be this little bit of HTML code with a couple of extra links. I wouldn't have thought just that tiny bit extra in Xian's was enough to cause an error though.

&lt;&lt; Sentence game : add 4 wordsfavorite music &gt;&gt;

Yeh the first link works fine for me

Apparently the link is only a dud for me .

Now what was that blob of writing?

Hmmm...someone doesn't like me then

Html writeing/links etc
