kev Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 i looked at the code and it really shouldn't be stalling the page loading. i'll have more of a look into it, wish the problem would affect me so i can suss the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazybobbles Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 hmm perhaps it's a skin related issue. i would recommend to shove it in onload for now so at least people get the content first before playing with the silly code Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tene Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Just block cookies from omniture.com and write some nice regex for web bugs. /(\/|\.)omniture.com\/.*/ (For AdBlock and suchlike) Actually, set your browser to only accept cookies you explicitly allow. Edit: ...and wmgmulti? I can't even see any references to that :/ Edit 2: Oh, I have 2o7 blocked with iptables /(\/|\.)(2o7|omniture)\.(com|net)\/.*/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happening to me quite often now. Sometimes the page just never fully loads past that screen I just posted and I just have to refresh it.

kev Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 hmm well all it does is write an img tag to a page so that shouldn't halt loading and the place it halts loading isn't where the code is. but anyway i've moved the code to the footer so it shouldn't even run until post js initialisation. let me know if you keep having problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chizzleface Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 It kept happening to me yesterday, what would happen is it would load the first few segments of a page then freeze while it waits for the wmgmulti page. Had to refresh a couple of times before it'd continue and load the whole page (this was in the Banter thread). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velouria Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'm just going to block their domains in my hosts file or via my firewall or ABP or something. It's getting ridiculous when I try to use the board at home. Would the board crap out if I blocked wmgbeaconcode.js via ABP in firefox Kev?

kev Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 you'd get a couple of js errors if you did that, but hopefully nothing severe enough to halt js on the page. have you had the problems still after erm half 11 ish last night? cos i moved the code to be the very last thing that runs on a page so it theoretically shouldn't be causing the same probs at all now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 thats good to hear! still not sure why an image would give you so much shit though :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velouria Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 thats good to hear! still not sure why an image would give you so much shit though :-/ I have no idea, it was as though the wmgmulti server was running epicly slow and couldn't return the image in a timely fashion. It was weird, it seemed to try to download a different image, or the same image from a different place every time. I kept blocking it with Ad Block Plus but it kept trying to load it up again from a different URL. Never mind, beef is now off the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind, beef is now off the menu. the url will always be slightly different cos it's reporting different data but the start of the url should always be the same. it's probably cos it's crappy old technology we have to use. hope we one day end up getting something good out of this or something :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Like I said, I bet Warner want to start charging us a subscription if they think they can get away with it/make enough money from it well like fuck they'll do that. we're quite lucky the muse site isn't quite that horribly corporate sort of thing with fan club shit. what i'm hoping is that they'll realise from the data that people actually use the forum whereas people only visit the main site for about 10 seconds and treat it a bit more importantly, think it's still a month or 2 til the bird who set it up gets back.
