    As the title says, quite a few people complained that they got this message "you are not authorized to access this page" when they filled all info and clicked the "submit" button to my www.cbgred.com .

    I am using phpld3.2. Is it due to phpld or my hosting setting?
    I have no clue for it. Your help is really appreciated.

    Thanks!

    The error may be due to timeout you may experience


    EDIT:it works fine for me


    After 10 minutes of opening a submit page means you submit a listing means you will get a error like this!

    Are they using proxy and did they always get the error?

    It seems the submit page working fine for me.

    I recently ran a promotion on my directory and had a few people complain about this. I am also running phpLD3.2 but have not yet figured out what the problem is.

    I am fairly certain the issue is not related to timeout as I had some very experienced users who had this issue. Plus the fact that the error they should have received should have stated 'Invalid or expired submit session'.

    But some family issues have halted my investigation into the problem for the time being.

    I think this was part of the IE bug.

    Omitting these lines in the submit.php seemed to have solved people's problems:

    
//Make an additional check if client is allowed to post/submit
//[Spam] protection
[B][COLOR="Red"]//[/COLOR][/B]require_once 'include/check_post_rules.php';
[B][COLOR="Red"]//[/COLOR][/B]$post_rules_unauthorized = check_post_rules($_POST);
    Code (markup):
