Are you using the Macaffee firewall? I seem to recall that having problems the past. Also, make sure you're using a firefox version newer than 1.04 (1.07 [aka 1.7] 1.5, 1.5.6, etc...)
I imagine the older versions may have problems with it.

Probably just being wonky and needing full hex declarations of white and black as opposed to fff and 000 <ffffff><000000>

Shortcuts almost never work, that's why the long way is so popular...

Silly mistake. All you did was set fg and bg to the same color value, (Foreground and Background) Just bring back the table that was behind everything with the blue background to make the rest of the numbers visible. ^.^ Make sure you have something like #656565 or #00bfc7 set as the bg for the cale...

For the record, the indextemplate and dailytemplate files go in /workspace. Once your page generates (either when you go into siteadmin and run a full update (first time only) or at midnight when it does it automatically, it will replace your index page with the indextemplate, only with all the ***....

It's not officially supported by comicgen anymore (and I don't blame them. It's pretty buggy) but you can still use Windows explorer to open ftp servers. Open <a href="file:///c:/WINDOWS/explorer.exe">Explorer</a> or <a href="file:///c:/Program%20Files/Internet%20Explorer/iexplore.exe">Internet Expl...

Don't even worry about it. The only difference between the two is what you put on them. The tags for a basic indextemplate, for example, match exactly with the tags for a basic dailytemplate. The reason you have both, is so you can put things on your main page that you don't want in your archives (a...

What browser are you using? Are you behind a proxy or hooked into an onion router? (ie, tor?) Try temporarily turning off any proxies you have running (if you can) and see if that works. You may also want to try signing up using the <a href="http://mozilla.org/firefox/">Firefox</a> browser if you do...

I haven't had much of a chance to play around with the standard themes, but I imagine it has an indextemplate and daillytemplate (which go in the /workspace folder), and a set of images (which go in /public_html/images), but probably the best way to do it would be to unzip the folder on your compute...

As far as screaming pink is concerned, I'm not sure I follow. (Maybe remarking on a cached page?) The pink fuschia used to be a hot-pink (glowing hot...) but has since been reduced to more of a (equal parts fo blue and red with no green ff00fe) I've tried to rework the page to make the colors balanc...

You may want to ditch the css mouseover code, as it makes the calendars rather hard to navigate after floating your cursor over them... Less is more... my index isn't perfect, but take a look at it to see if there are any elements you find useful/useable about it... http://msac.comicgenesis.com/d/in...

Oddly enough, the 100% declarations are what cause problems with opera... The horizontal scroll bars seem to be a browser-specific issue, as well; seeing as how MSIE, The Sunrise Browser, and Safari all render the page properly. It seems (as much as it hurts to say it) that Opera and Firefox are the...

There's a really simple fix for your problem that everyone seems to be overlooking. for the font declaration, drop the <b>.... that's it. You're done. the reason for the problem, is that each one of those calendars generates as an independant table, since it's a table in and of itself, it cannot rea...

That error isn't a big deal. It usually just means that there's not index.html in your /public_html folder. Run an update and let in generate one, or just wait for the initial one to generate automatically. It usually takes a little bit for the first index.html to generate. If you do upload a placeh...

I got my password and tried it the same day. Unfortunately, it did not work. My immediate solution was to employ my first line of troubleshooting techniques (ie, activating a new password). Immediately upon activating my new password (the confirmation email arrived within minutes of my request) I wa...

Does it generally work in Explorer? I did my signup from Firefox, so I'm not sure in the slightest how well MSIE handles comicgen's CGI..

I'd be willing to consider it... My only qualm is with the idea of mostly indigent folks such as myself not having access to all the siteadmin tools (ie, you can only upload a pog if you pay XX number of dollars per month, newsbox uploads are another XX dollars, but free if page grosses XX visitors ...

I see that you are using some javascripts. It does add to the load time. Instead of using a mouseover javascript, you can use the CSS a:hover Paseudo-Class . I don't think that CSS trick will help me much. I'll play around with it, but I'd prefer the images preload, since they don't appear to anima...

It completely ignores the vertical tables on the sides of my comic, and screws up my rantbox in ways that no other browser currently does... I'm tempted to dispute the status of opera as a valid browser if it can't properly render a perfectly written html table... As far as the rantbox goes, I'm goi...

Checked the page out in opera, and I can't figure out what's causing my rantbox to show up as small as it does, but It's doing the same thing it used to do in other browsers (when I tried to dynamically set the height of the shoutbox in the window... I'll try hard-coding the height into the iframe i...

What are the other problems with the site? And the opera problem... I imagine it's just opera taking my 1% <td> tag literally, and not using it as a shrinkwrap for my properly sized iframe... meh. I'm downloading a few different browsers to test out the site, and I'm going to regenerate to see if th...
