Small problem

[Dark7]

Hmm... I'm kinda a noob with computers. When i press the link that opens TAO nothing happens :(. I know it has something to do with my security setting but i dont know exactly what i have to change. anyone want to tell me what i have to do?

[Merdoc.]

Deleted all your cookies....And umm, ya that should make it. if not get the direct link to see if it makes it. Also, does it even attempt to load?

[Dark7]

mehh i deleted my cookies and nothing happened. When i click the play online button the link "www.tacticsarena.com/play" just changes to "www.tacticsarena.com/play/#" :(.

[Merdoc.]

Well, it could be lag, my next solution. Ask Jeffery.

Turn off pop-up-blocker.

[Merdoc.]

Oh ya, it depends what pop-up blocker you have tho.

[Dark7]

umm yea, when i type in the direct link to the game(www.tacticsarena.com/play/fpstao049b.html) it works for some reason? but when i press the play online button nothing happens

[Jeffery]

Popup blocker.

Check and see if you have popups disabled. Also, since it is a javascript that pops open the link, if you have java disabled it won;t work.

What operating system, what browser are you using?

[Dark7]

well i turned my popup blockers off and it still didnt work. How do u disable/enable java?oh, and when i hold my curser over the "play online" link it just says "link to #". I have not idea whats wrong.

[TTitan44]

that just happened to me. But i fixed it. Just click on the link about 8 times very fast and it should work.

i have pop-up blocker but it still worked for me!

I banned you.

Deleting cookies will never change anything, I don't think TAO even uses cookies except for the forums. You sometimes do have to delete your temporary internet files. Still, you should be able to load the initial screen without even doing that.

This does sound like a popup problem to me. Which browser do you use? I don't know anything about IE anymore.

Nope I have cookies of the game.

Wrong. There is not a cookie that is inherently loaded from the game.

well all i know is that the problem still has not been solved. whenever i highlight the link to a flash movie, or tao it just says shorcut to javascrip:.... and other crap. Someone IM me on Loseyourself630 to help me!!!

[Jeffery]

You still haven't said what operating system and browser you are using. Without that info, no one can help you.

[Dark7]

operating system? like windows or something?(im using windows xp) and i just use internet explorer.

[Jeffery]

In the menu bar, do the following:
1. Click "Tools" --> "Internet Options"
2. Select the Advanced Tab, and scroll down to "Java (Sun)"
3. Check the box next to the "Use Java 2" version
4. Next, select the Security Tab, and select the "Custom Level" button
5. Scroll down to "Scripting of Java applets"
6. Make sure the "Enable" radio button is checked.
7. Click OK to save your preference.

Checked off or checked on?
Take a screenshot of the portion of your settings and show me.

Its prob. pop-up blocker, or you might have to suspend some cookies. Of course, it just might be your internet access to. I'm not 100% sure about any of those. BUT DONT ASK A PRO. all thyre gonna do is charge you big-bucks.
