hehehoho Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 this from a thread in the Chiang Mai section: Not sure whether to open a new thread, but it is related to this one.<IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt= src="http://static.thaivisa.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif"> <BR><BR>Living in a condo with over 100 apartments. Within 50m there is a Hotel/Resort. Every week minimum 2/7 sometimes more often they have busloads of tourists coming in. Naturally, parties galore. <BR>The worst case of parties - no recorded music, no bands, but caraoke style. High power amps, mic's and a small podium.<BR>Net result - every mad dog and his wife tell the story of their love, 'singing'. The usual case of people, who like to sing, but cannot.<BR><STRONG>This is maddening</STRONG>!<IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt= src="http://static.thaivisa.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/bah.gif"> <BR><BR>When copying western laws, <STRONG>did Thais get to the concept of noise pollution? <BR></STRONG>I'm not sure the venue in question does have the licence or not, but even if they do, it should't have been given to them in view of proximity of residential building. This is how it is done in the West. But we are obviously not... <BR><BR>Any <STRONG>knowleageable</STRONG> comments?<IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt=:jap: src="http://static.thaivisa.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/jap.gif"> <BR> Would you bother in even trying to read it? Why are so many post, on Thaivisa, compared to all the other Thai forums, virtually unreadable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electau Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Since last Friday July 3 an IE9 Security Alert appears when accessing Thai visa or changing pages. "You are about to view pages over a secure connection" Is ThaiVisa a secure website now? Also the website access has slowed down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 There have been issues reported with the new IE9-and be aware that it apparently ONLY works on Vista and Win 7 so if you are running XP, its not supported and that may be some of the issues. Not sure what brings up the code tho, I wonder if people are copy pasting from a word doc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Just checked with g and the BB code is from members copy pasting from a word document AND their editor is set to rich text editor. If you are going to copy paste from a word doc then it needs to be set to simple editor. Done from My Settings Settings Untick rich text editor option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hehehoho Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) I don't think that's correct. I've never pasted anything and a few times my posts have come up like that, so I usually edit them there and then. I've never seen it on any other of the Thai forums. Perhaps Thai visa should copy their software. Edited June 6, 2011 by hehehoho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware, it's impossible to install IE9 on XP - as you say, it's only supported by Vista and 7, and so the installer only works on those operating systems.

WarpSpeed Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) It always helps when one uses the "preview" option prior to clicking the post icon in which case you can fix it prior.. Edited June 6, 2011 by WarpSpeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hehehoho Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 It always helps when one uses the "preview" option prior to clicking the post icon in which case you can fix it prior.. 1. Why should one have to manually 'fix' their posts because a forum can't manage itself correctly? None of the other Thai forums have this issue, and thus are nicer to use. 2. That isn't much good when it's other people's posts that are virtually unreadable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't much good when it's other people's posts that are virtually unreadable. I partially agree, I'm constantly having to fix others posts usually due to improper quoting (read sloppy) by other members and I've never gotten the results of other forums when trying to use the quote function, it just doesn't seem to work so I quote the entire post and edit accordingly. It's quite a pain but I manage and pointed out how you can too... I do wish it were different though.. On my own note of complaint: Lately when I get a notification of a response to a quote it takes me to totally unrelated quotes of other members or no related quote what-so-ever and sometimes the top of the page that supposedly relates to the quote.. I reasoned that some responding quotes may have been deleted and no longer exist while the notification still does but that hasn't been uniform and doesn't apply in all cases where searching through the thread finally reveals the quote in question..
