I have had the blank screen a couple of times but only on my phone (and possibly when I’ve had questionable service).

Notifications - check your spam filters first through a webmail (browser) portal if you use a client (Outlook/Mail etc).

I had a blank screen a couple of times today at the farm and assumed it was a poor signal (although it’s not done that before) - pressed refresh and the page appeared.

Could still be internal memory problem due to complexity of page your computer needs to download. Webmaster may be able to help.

Unlikely to be internal memory - we post in this sub-forum so that Ian can pick up a single thread rather than half a dozen PMs.

Uploading images no longer seems to work on firefox or chrome.
The message I get is:

You must enter your path and filename

It seems the browse button is not capturing the path and it cannot be typed in manually.

Any ideas

Dan

Hmm - works okay on my iPad through chrome?

Although I don’t use the browse button for pictures, only google drive, iCloud Drive or Dropbox.

I posted one earlier today via Firefox, which was ok, though just as a double-check, here's another, also via Firefox on Win 10:

(though note I did use drag'n'drop both times, as that's my normal way of doing it; I find it much easier).

This one was done using the browse button:

Seems to be ok?

One thought - could it be that the path you used for your last upload, is now no longer present on the computer (ie you've disconnected a remote hard disk, unplugged a USB device, or detached from a network drive)?

As a side issue Jim, I notice your image demonstrates the ongoing orientation issue with images from (primarily) phones and ipads, which expect to be re-oriented by the display device. To me it looks as though it's fallen over to the left, and needs 90 deg right rotation to fix it. It's easy enough to view it correctly, by right clicking on the image, then clicking "view image", which displays it correctly orientated. You then need to use the browser "back" button to return to the post. It's not the end of the world, but if there is a fix it would be nice, especially as such devices are becoming more common.

Hmm - the phone was upright when I took it?

Is this one sideways to you?

Yes, I thought that was probably the case.

Your second shot looks the right way up

Does this work Alan: http://www.scimitarweb.co.uk/siop/index ... csj4caa015

That should take you straight to the Memberships section of the shop.

P.S. I'm using Chrome as well, but through Windows 7.
