Cannot create new accounts

Forum URL: afspouses.proboards74.com

Working on getting a new forum started. Sent the link above to a friend so she could log an and help with some ideas. She filled out the registration form, chose "i accept" and pressed the "create account" button. Nothing happened. She tried using both a Mac and IE and same thing.
I tried creating a test account and it wouldn't do anything for me either.
I checked in the general settings area to make sure everything was good for sign-ups.

Any help is appreciated

if they filled in the form correctly and agreed the terms, they should have their name appear on the newest member, they should also have got a message saying their details have been sent to their email.
as i didn't see any other name at the bottom, i guess they didn't register properly, ask them to read and follow more carefully.

i registered and logged in withn 5 minutes, (deleted my account)

Just a thought.. has your friend gotten the activation code in her email to activate her account on your board?

that was the thing. when we (happened to me too) pressed the create account button, it didn't do anything else. never loaded a new window, sent an email anywhere, nothing. I'm using firefox. I haven't tried with my IE yet

what is your email sever?? that you signed up with? - have you checked your junk folder for any of the info? it could have been sent there.

yeah i checked, nothing. I just tried using Internet explorer and had no problems. got confirmation page, and an email was sent to my gmail account I used.

Seems to be something to do with firefox

as soon as you press create account, your name should appear in the online box as new member.
i didn't see that when i looked, so recheck you are doing everything correctly.

username, password twice, email twice, a valid date of birth, agree to the terms at the bottom, then create

ok I hate to point this out but i'm 31 years old and I can read. I did fill out everything correctly. NOTHING happens when I press the "create account" button while using FIREFOX. No error message, no confrimation message, no email sent, no browser page loading, NOTHING. It just stays there. When I went in through Internet Explorer, it worked fine. even pointed out an error not to use password and username as the same.

well, im just guessing here but if you said it worked fine for you while using IE - and NOT firefox.. correct? then im guessing it has something to do with your firefox... are you sure you have the most recent version? just a thought

Try clearing out your temp files, cookies and reboot. You'd be surprised at how that helps at times.

I just tried it using Fx and there is a problem. It doesn't work. Try it in IE and see what happens

I believe they stated in a earlier post that it does work using IE... just not in firefox - I cant even think what the problem maybe

I took a moment to look at the coding in his board. He has major coding errors throughout the board. Look at it in IE and you will see what I mean. When you click on the yellow triangle it lists nearly 6 errors. He will need to take out all the codes and start over.

Firefox version is 1.0.7. haven't cleared temp file etc yet. going to do that now.
Errors? ok I went to check in IE like you said... What yellow triangle?
All the scripts that are on there right now came from proboards code database. Any help with pointing out what you noticed is appreciated also.

Sorry, what is your board url? the one you posted above takes me to the proboards homepage for some reason.
