not updating

[carmalee]

anyone tell me why answerbank latest post is not automatically updating
- it has been suggested that it's not in 'real time' but I can go away for hours, come back to my computer and nothing has changed - even when I click on the latest post heading to up date, nothing happens. thanks for any help

Either you've got Javascript turned off in your browser, or your browser is failing to recognise it.

Which browser are you using?

? browser - Internet explorer -how do I know if I have java script switched off and why would it have randomly done this - ps I love you

Why would it do it? It's from ruddy Microsoft!!! What else do you expect?

Check that 'Active Scripting' is enabled in Internet Explorer:
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/howtoscript

If it appears that it's already enabled, check that you've got the latest edition of Internet Explorer which is compatible with your operating system:

If you still can't fix it (or better, even if you can) try using a DECENT browser instead:

Absolutely love it Chris!! Computers are a planet of their own.

I'm on FF and sometimes it takes pigging ages too.

albaquerty - need my computer to behave rationally - it's a machine for heaven sake - can't fix things if they go wrong - get a bit of a panic on - can and do, handle dodgy dogs and very, very badly behaved horses but computers! no, sorry they are not in my realm of comprehension!!!!! oh that I wish they were
