(error) reason 204 is about as useless to those using the Browser as nothing at all... I can only assume that COF believes that we Citizens would rather not have a 'plain english' explanation of the problem. Like, I'd much rather spend hours trying to track down a problem then be told up front I have (possibly) a corrupt cache or HD problem (or you'r building faster then you can refresh to the Server, whatever)... NOT... :-) If they can have a window pop-up with an 'error number' then they can certainly tack on a possible reason for the error... Come on COF... Even Billy Gates has admitted that 'error numbers' do nothing for the Users of the Software... (and coming from the master himself - Mouse not detected, click OK to continue - is quite something...) (and hiding the explanation in some .doc isn't handy... having it 'in your face', at the time of the error, is what's required) [View Quote] > I wish the was a list of reasons.
