'Manage Attachments' button not working
As per the title.
Anybody else having problems? Regardless of whether I press it for a new thread or a reply the button simply doesn't work. Nothing happens. Yesterday it was fine but now I can't do anything with it |

Fine here too.
Browser specific? Browser version specific? (pleas specify) Also, you would not happen to have it opened in a new tab/window and forgotten it and then keep pressing manage attachments getting no result (as the only manage attachments window will be the one in the new tab/window and therefore any other click on Manage Attachments won't open another one). |

Using Firefox 3.5.8 on XP. Nothing different to yesterday.
And no, absolutely nothing has appeared in a new tab/new window etc anywhere at all! Thanks for having a look guys. This has really puzzled me... |

If you haven't got another instance of the attachments window open as lilalurl suggests, can you upload to the Zone without problems?

Yep, just tried to upload a test file to the Zone (deleted now) and that worked fine.
I've just created a new thread I wanted to do last night with attachments, but had to do it in (spit) Internet Explorer for it to work. I still can't get it to work on here. I've got no add-ons installed or anything like that and nothing else has been installed recently - to my knowledge at least. So I am at a total loss as to why this doesn't work. I assume that prowler and lilalurl tried it using Firefox 3.5.8 too? |

I would suggest to upgrade but I would find it weird if it solved the issue (although it might still be worth a try). Other things you could try is deleting your cookies for EAB and your cache. Then run your favourite anti-spyware program, just in case. I searched quickly and could at least find an instance of somebody having a similar issue (on another vbulletin board): http://www.abxzone.com/forums/f139/a...ng-103297.html But if was with IE (and also FF). And it was in 2006. From what I understand the issue solved itself after a while . Still, you could find some ideas of things to try. Edit: Hmmm, we'd better solve this issue because right now EAB is showing as number 2 result when searching ""manage attachments" not working" on Google. |

Cheers lilalurl.
I'm at work now (where the letter T on my keyboard only works intermittently (you have no idea how long it took to type that ) just to rub it in) and use IE here but I will try your suggestions tonight and if all else fails I'll just upgrade and hope for the best. |

I'm not a 'latest version freak', it just happened to be the current version when I installed it as an alternative to IE6 (still haven't updated to IE8 ). |

Just upgraded to version 3.6. It now works fine.
I'll probably never ever know what happened but what the heck, at least it's working again now. |
