Can anyone make this site work?: http://www.lazarusvintage.co.uk/
Twice this past week I've tried to use it - get the page, sometimes click the blue 'gizmo' to clear blocked content, and the page goes blank.
Other times, I either ignore the gizmo or there isn't one at all, and if I try to put something in the basket, I get a blank page!
Summat's up!

Mobile phones can be useful, but they can also be a ball and chain. I usually leave mine at home when I go out walking, but take it if out in the car in case of breakdown (VERY hard to find a payphone these days. I liked the ones with "button b" that sometimes spewed out free pennies when pressed).

Could never resist pressing that one!
Yes, a mobile is useful to keep for emergencies - as long as you remember to take it with you .....which we frequently don't!

Just tried the Lazarus site using Chrome. Loads fine for me.

: Lazarus Vintage E-Liquids

No good for me,even on Chrome.
Loads homepage and thats it,blank screens after that.

Tried it again. Clicked on "Stardust". Loads fine. I even played the "Stardust" video.

Duh! don't understand it then.

Ah! at least I'm not alone! I'm just getting a blank screen now.

So, I wonder what can be different between your computer, and the ones George & I are using!
I use a desktop with W7Pro IE11, and Chrome as a back-up.

I also get problems with M&S website too - most times I can't see any review details, and am never able to post one of my own. Been that way for months now.

I'm using a Chromebook at the moment but that shouldn't be the issue - Chrome is Chrome. Puzzling...

Tried the M&S website to test that. Went to the wine section, clicked on the Val de Loire sauvignon blanc and read the unflattering reviews. Have you tried clearing out your temp folders? That can help sometimes.

Could Java be something to do with it? ...can't recall which, but wasn't Java or Adobe a bit iffy and a lot of us disabled it?

Every night I run SAS to clear tracking cookies, and regularly go to %temp% and clear those too unless I do it from Disk Cleanup.

Have you ever run Ccleaner on it? The free version is on the Piriform website. It often rectifies little problems imho.

Thanks, but I remember getting my computer into a pickle with that years ago, so wouldn't be happy to try it again I'm afraid.

Lazarus loaded for me as well, no probs.

Fair enough - but it's much better (and safer) now than it once was. Just run it with the default settings.

I suppose I'm not surprised seeing you now have 10. I think a lot of sites have been designed for use with 10.

OK, I'll take a look if I can't get anywhere with finding out what causes it.

...I did get dire warnings never to touch it again last time though

Never lost my number, connection or the credit on it, and it must be two years since it was topped up.

Yes, I think you only really have to make one call every 6 months or so to make sure the money stays on and to stop it getting disconnected.

OK ...I'd better 'phone home' then and keep it going! Really don't know how they can get away with that ...we buy the phone and put some money in ..it's ours! ....Imagine if they did that with cars when they don't get used for a while!

Easy to recall what they smelled like too!

Adobe Flash - but with chrome you normally still get the page loading just the you have to right click on panels that will not play, must admit though I'm getting problems with that site as well, managed to get the first page to load after a while, clicking on the picture though gives me a 404 error, so maybe they are having problems with the site.

I've been in contact with everyone that saved me Bob, the bikers, GNAA, doctors nurses and even the police. They all deserve many thanks from me.

 

[Bobw1951]

AB boxes were good for free calls as well, if you knew how

Perhaps the site is to blame then ...what about M&S ...is it OK for you? ...seems to me that it's Java stuff that isn't working.
