a faster, more responsive version,
There may be several things that could improve this forum, but I find it plenty responsive. Perhaps you were experiencing a general internet problem. Every once in a while all of Logos sites seem to have performance problems...it occurred from time to time on the newsgroups too.
Please leave the light on...the rest of us are still here. [I]
I participate regularly in several forums produced by companies of comparable size and revenue base as Logos. Logos's is as quick or quicker than the others.

I'm getting consistent javascript errors today. Haven't seen them before. But the forums are considerably slower.
Here's the error message:
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.Script: http://bible.logos.com/jsapi/referencetagging.js:1
The script happens on all pages, not only those you'd expect to find a reference tag on.
Weird...what browser are you using? I'm not seeing those at all using Firefox 3.5 or IE7.

I've been having problems with Javascript as well since I got my new computer and began running 64 bit Vista. I think, however, my problem is different from yours since it only occurs when I run 64 bit IE. Then I get a message that I need to update Java. Then I'm told when I try to update that they don't have a 64 bit version ready. I solve the problem by using the 32 bit version instead. As I said, probably a different problem.
Using FF3.5 as well. I was having some trouble with FF seeming to be slow on other pages too. So I shut it down (had to kill it in task manager too) and flushed the cache with CCleaner. Seems to be fine for now. At least I haven't seen an error message in a while.
I'm using Vista 32bit. In Chrome it works fine. I avoid IE anything and haven't tried it in Firefox 3.5.
I too am having slow down problems but not just with LOGOS.com I run both Firefox 3.0.1 and IE7. I have suspicions these two browsers are having a feud behind the scenes inside my computer. Micro$oft has a history of being antagonistically proprietary. I had to quit using auto update because any M$ update kept trying to make IE my default browser.
I had the same problem running IE7 alongside Chrome. So I think the guilty party is M$. I will try Opera alongside IE7 and see if it replicates the behavior. I don't think it's any of the LOGOS servers.

Richard, I've been getting the same message fairly regularly over the last month or two using Firefox 3.5 at work and at home. It's not just the Logos forums; it's any site with RefTagger installed. I'm fairly certain it's a conflict between RefTagger and at least one Firefox extension, but I haven't been able to pinpoint the problem extension. If I figure it out, I'll let you know. Please do the same. Once we identify the problem, perhaps we can optimize the RefTagger script to fix the conflict on our end.
I am running the Mac version of FF 3.5 and have experienced no problems. The only plugins I am running are Greasemonkey (with the Facebook delete app), Evernote Webclipper, Gmail notifier and Google Gears (currently disabled due to not being compatible with 3.5).
If you read my other post, you'll notice that clearing the cache using CCleaner fixed it for me. I have CCleaner clean out the Download History, Internet Cache and Saved Form Information (I leave the rest). It's possible something left in the cache was causing the conflict with an addin, since cleaning it has seemed to solve the problem.
YMMV.
Update:
Okay, so I was trying to get the forums to work with the AutoPager Addin. After looking at the tutorials and trying a few configurations, I started getting the same error again. So likely culprits are the AutoPager Addin, or the engine that drives Autopager, or some strange conflict with a codec somewhere.
Update 2:
Cleaning my cache again solved the problem, even after using AutoPager on a number of threads. So I'm at a loss. Maybe it will show up again later spontaneously. (BTW, AutoPager is one of my fav addons. And I did get it to work with these forums.)
Richard, could you please send me a list of all of the Firefox Extensions you had installed when you were having the problem? Feel free to post the list here or send it to phil@logos.com. Thanks!
