Competitions Discussion Thread Part 16

Mercer

Hi everyone, Im not sure what has happened I think firefox might of had an update! When i do itv comps i usually do the trick with the back button to keep all the details filled in when doing multiple entries but now i keep getting this message. I tried to find a setting to disable it but no luck, wondered if anyone had the same problem and managed to fix it?!!!

Thanks to those that responded to my suggestion of a hashtag on twitter for those 'flashcomps' that aren't worth posting, but as only a couple of people replied, I don't think that there is sufficient interest for it to take off.

I will carry on entering competitions directly on twitter and posting those that have a day or so to enter (time permitting).

Good luck everyone.

Hi Mercer

I have been having exactly the same problem since Firefox updated to v10 the other day. The "Try again" works only once then you have to reinput your details. There was a mention of the issue on the Mozilla forum but no apparent solution.

I've found that if you use the Reload current page option sort of a circular arrow at the end of the search bar it works the same as the back button used to
Hope this helps and works for you

Urgh I hate getting spam with Congratulations you won in the title, only to be dissapointed with the rest saying, a chance to enter a competition to win a blah blah. Really, I won nothing, I can enter competitions all day long anyway!

I use the enter button to show me which ones i've entered but is there some similar button i can use that will show me which ones i have looked at but for whatever reason have not entered?

it's just i've spent sooo much time clicking on them thinking i havent entered it because its not green and then a few minutes later realising why i didnt enter them becuase its a facebook one or a newsletter sign up or something else etc?

Thanks

Maybe just click enter anyway? I'm sure someone will come along with better advice. I think this will need to be moved to comp discussions?
