Suddenly Not Validating?

Discussion in 'Co-op Advertising Network' started by Cecil, Sep 9, 2005.

    Got the email today at 11:07am saying I don't validate. But the ads show without a hitch. Did something change? I don't see any posts about new code... (even if there was, you give the asp guys a chance to catch up before making it a hard switch right?) In fact, I'm looking at the ads and there's an ad to coop sitting right there in front of me.

    Any thoughts?

    Did you check the right page? They are at the top right side of the page under the "your ad here" box. You didn't get thrown off by my breaking up the url did you?

    Are you using the normal PHP version, because it doesn't seem like it.

    we have an asp site so we're using an asp version...it's been running flawlessly for months now so I'm not sure why it suddenly broke. Ideas?

    I'm getting the feeling that there was a recent update to the php code. Did things just switch? In the past, I received an email warning of upcoming changes to the code so all the asp guy could scramble to find each other and update their code. No emails this time till the validator broke.

    I just read another post with a similar problem asking if the asp people could have a centralized playground in the forums so we could find each other a little better. That sounds like a good idea. I know you don't officially support asp but we appreciate the coop and hope to not get shaken off by an update by getting caught unawares...

    Sorry, I don't know anything about the ASP code... But the system does not work with the very old code (from 5+ months ago). An email was sent to everyone telling them they needed to update at that time (5+ months ago).

    So I need asp code that is newer than....5 months? What are the chances of a separate asp directory within the forum for us ugly stepchildren? Or would that be considered supporting asp? It would keep us from poluting the main directories? ;)

    Might not be a bad idea, but I don't have time to spin all the 3rd party implementations off into a sub-forum this very second. :)
