Posted by Buggerthat Posts 10 Registered at 2008-12-17 02:37:34	2008-12-21 04:13:38 - The dreaded double login in IE and Firefox
	I have only one machine I can log in with, and only using IE. All my other machines and browsers get the second login box in the center when I try to login. Cookies and java are enabled I can get by using just IE on my laptop, but I would like to use my machine at work too. (I attached a screenshot) thanks, BT Attachments FAIL.bmp (2.9 MB)

	Try on other PC/machine to log into "www.sailonline.org" The "www." may be needed. This was an earlier issue. IE seems to work OK with just "sailonline.org" If it breaks, it's not strong enough!

	I have the same problem. Works ok on 2 of my machines, but not in Firefox on my primary one (only in IE) I can't see any difference in Firefox settings and indeed disabled my extensions in Firefox for a while to see if any conflict. No difference. The new client is brilliant otherwise, but the lack of breeze in the malacca straits is driving me mad.

	I think I fixed this a while ago, but try clearing your cookies on the machines giving you trouble.

	Gave that a go - no joy. Think I'll just carry on with IE on that machine. Cheers Simon

	I cleared cache, cookies, history,autocomplete, etc manually and with a little app I like to use called ccleaner. Tried full re-boot before and after clearing stuff. ANyway, I'm still sailing and thanks to no extra fees for steer to wind and delayed course changes I don't need 24hr access to the website! The machine I can get on with is a laptop so I can take it with me. Thanks for a great game. Weird that can't get on even with IE on some machines though. Is it possible that it is a java issue? I have had to uninstall java and all updates and reinstall the newest version to fix some glitches like this before. (I say that not knowing what java really does or if it is even utilized in sailonline). I am an auto mechanic and customers always ask if it could be something bizarre and unrelated. When car won't start they say "maybe it is because the window makes noise when you roll it down" or something like that. BT

	I solved my login problem today... I had login saved on my laptop from my initial registration and it worked every time. On every attempt on other machines I wasn't starting my user name with a capital B. D'OH! -Sorry to be a troublesome bugger

Neumayer Station to Biscoe Wharf 2024

It’s Autumn now in Antarctica, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. The penguins are starting to huddle together to keep warm and the sea ice is growing. Time to get back to Biscoe Wharf then, before the water becomes impassible. Including a detour past Argentina’s main two Antarctic stations, it’s only 1900nm, so, although we’ll be in a hurry, we will take the bigger, better ice-classed Paratii 2 once more, just to be sure!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
