Just got acknolwedgement from Jive that it is a bug in the text editor that is still being worked on.

Can you give me details on the block quote issue? I tried going through some of the other threads, but there is too much noise to find the actual issues.

Also looking for more info on the 404 errors. I had a couple of people email me to say that it was fixed, but others are still reporting it.

Thanks!

Just curosity.

Could it be that the "off topic post will be deleted" rule does not always apply?

Seriously, now, I think that the 404 error and the garbage in the quote blocks are too two separate problems, so maybe a new split in two threads would be advisable. I am not counting my own completely off topic intrusion because that was taken care of in another thread, and because before the split there were too many topics in the thread. As a matter of fact, I think it would do no harm to delete my off topic messages.

So this has been going on for 2 weeks and Jive is still clueless?

Log in with the "Remember me" option, close browser, open browser, go to preferences panel and remove .adobe.com AUID domain cookie. You now have a jive.history.xxx cookie as the only one for forums.adobe.com and still have a RMID for .adobe.com. Now go to http://forums.adobe.com/community/general/forum_comments and check any of the lnks in the last post column. They all have a jsessionid in the wrong place in the url.

But did you check whether all your Jive cookies except the history where

gone? (Doesn't even have to be all, jsessionid is enough.)

Yes. This goes back to when I was on IE 7. In the editing screen, with the article, to which one is replying below, the user does a Copy, and then Pastes it into the editing box. Select it, and hit the Block Quote icon. Prior to the update, this then stripped any formatting and place the line(s) of text into the gray rectangle, indented for Block Quote.

Update and the same operation usually resulted in the Pasted text being replaced by an empty Block Quotation box. Back then, Ctrl+Z worked on my IE 7, so that was what I would do. Ctrl+V (Paste) again, same text. Block Quote icon usually worked on the second time, but not always.

There were several occasions, where I had highlighted and Copied, say just a line of text, rather than the full message. Most often, the above behavior happened, and did not take for maybe three tries. In the process, at times, when the Block Quote icon was pressed, the full content of the subject post would be placed onto the screen, below a Block Quote box, that was empty. What was odd was that the Clipboard still had just the highlighted, Copied text and NOT the full text from the subject post - where THAT came from is anybodies' guess. I never Copied all of it, but just a line, or two.

I did not count the instances, but had many attempts that took 5-6 tries to get a Block Quote. The odd behavior of getting the full content of the subject post below the empty Block Quote probably happened once per day.

Now, I have not encountered any of this behavior in Chrome. I Block Quote a lot, so I have used the feature extensively, and it has yet to fail.

Those are my observations, and I hope they help. Again, ALL of these behaviors were in IE 7.

The 404 error is still present and annoying in FF 3.5.5. I get *every* time, without fail when I first load the page. I load my browser via a bookmark which points to http://forums.adobe.com/community/general/forum_comments?view=discussions .

In looking at the bookmarked link, I wondered if the "?view=discussions" was having any effect on the 404 errors. I edited the bookmark to match the exact URL provided by the forum comments link on the main page ( http://forums.adobe.com/community/general/forum_comments ) and I still get the 404 error. I must reload the page in order to view any discussion.

I have not been able to duplicate the 404 errors with FireFox 3.5.5.

That looks like a valid url.

I made sure I was not logged into Adobe.com or the forums. Closed Firefox. Restarted. Copy/pasted your URL into the address line and was taken right in. All of the avatars showed correctly next to the list of discussions. Clicking on a discussion takes me in with the "status" icon under the avatars showing correctly. (the status icon was one of the images that was always affected by the session ID in its URL).

Can others who are seeing the 404 errors please post the URL they are initially hitting to visit the Forums?

Thanks!
