Has the forum software changed? All program listings now seem to save as Attachment.php. Using Windows 7 pro 64bit.

Is it only me? :confused:

Hi Jim, do you mean the code between ['code ]tags? I haven't noticed any difference and can still scrape and copy them as before.

Your attachment was 'attachment.bas.txt' and opened in a text editor, as expected. But then I'm using Ubuntu.

Just ran a Virtual XP machine and logged in - attachments work as expected -- must be a "feature" of Win 7 Pro 64-bit :confused:

Not a problem at this end, SUSE Linux 12.2, offered to open it in Kwrite (an editor). I suspect that it has to do with the default handling of one or other of the extensions on the file, but have forgotten how to change the default in Windows.

I just " Updated ???" IE 10 with IE 11 on Win 7 and got the same issue.

Goto > tools > Compatibility View Settings > then add < picaxeforum.co.uk > to the list.

Seems to have solved the problem

EDIT: Then I immediately switched back to my regular browser (Firefox 27.0.1)

Thanks for the tip Goeytex. I knew there must be a reason why I was resisting the change to IE11:). In life, there are many occasions where it is best not to be a trendsetter!

Makes me wonder how many sites will be need to be added to the compatibility list for various reasons. I abandoned IE many years ago because of the multitude of security problems and privacy issues. I replaced it with Firefox Ver 3.x and have been using it ever since.

Slight update: When in compatability mode with IE11 downloads work fine - BUT- images never display when clicked on ... close then click again and image displays. The joys of Windoze :eek:

It would be if the prime time was dictated by the Redmond crowd. I well remember when companies wrote their web pages for IE5 etc.as standard.

The fact that different IE versions weren't consistent never helped their case either.
