Make Sure You Can Login to AT

Re: Intrepid Timer's Investment Strategies

Looks like Tom has changed the tracker to a multi-page format. it Sux!

I do not like it one bit, rather be able to scroll the whole tracker.

I agree with you completely. As I stated over the last several days why I wanted the least amount of change to the message board for the new IT service (which I am a paying member of). I normally have my spreadsheets pull off member results each morning which took me 10 minutes instead of 10 seconds. Maybe this is an item in transition but the 100 limitation to view is a setback for me. I hope this improves, but I gave up wishing for positive improvements for the majority of the members of this message board. On the other hand, I know that Tom is working hard to make it right but I think this is going in the wrong direction for the message board in general.

Thanks for the feedback, but come on. Did you prefer the the AutoTracker version that freezes because it had gotten too large for a browser?

I unblocked the names on the AT because of the complaints and I fixed the page freeze because the page is too large and too much info for a browser. What do you want from me?

Re: Intrepid Timer's Investment Strategies

Tom it wasnt freezing in my browser, even my cell phone could load it.
Maybe you should just have two versions and a link to the original one?
Yeah I like that.

You cant please everyone...so you gotta please yourself. Alright now..

Re: Intrepid Timer's Investment Strategies

The second link may work.

In IE the full list did display but freezes when you click within the browser. And of course Firefox was dying after 190+ records.

I'll look into a small inconspicuous link for those who want the whole thing on one page. I'm impressed that your cell phone had enough memory.

For now - here is a link you can use to see the full listing: www.tsp_user_balance_all_full.php

Re: Intrepid Timer's Investment Strategies

I think its a handheld computer first and the phone part was added as an afterthought.

Thanks Tom for hearing all of us and unswerving attention to detail

Tom, Thanks for all of the work getting the page to work for everyone. I have been using IE for a long time wthout any issues. I was just trying to say that it wasn't broke for me and I used the full list effectively in my daily routine. OBTW, your temp link to the full list did not work for me and I wanted to pass that along.

Tom,
The link at the bottom of the page worked great from my IE this afternoon. Really appreciate going the extra mile to make this available.

I wonder if the "freezing" is related to PC memory? The page loads fine for me, but once I click on the page anywhere, it freezes.

Do you know how much RAM (memory) you have on your PC?

Of course it looks like it dies in all Firefox browsers, so I don't know what that is.

Thanks

Tom,
I have 2.95 GB of RAM. I can click anywhere on the page and off it goes to the next page as commanded. I normally only highlight the table and paste into a spreadsheet but I tried this afternoon to have it lockup and it did not. The full page worked great and normally, I just have to wait until the entire table loads which can be a few seconds to a minute based on internet traffice. Sorry that I can not help isolate the problem that others are seeing but my computer with 3 GB of RAM works great with IE 7. This page has worked well for me and I use everyday it to feed my excel spreadsheets for my daily routine.
Thanks for trying so hard, Steve
Thanks, Steve

I'm not having the freezing issues with the link at the bottom of the 100 count page. Is this the same page that was freezing up my computer or is it different some how? And I only have 1gb ram...

Yes, the one that shows all members on one page was causing problems for several people, including myself, in both IE and FireFox.

If you have FireFox the problem shows up just before record #200. With IE, some are having the screen freeze on them. I had problems with both.

I did some research and the universal recommendation was to break down large data pages into multiple pages when this happens.

I have 8 Gigs of RAM, IE8 and no problems with the page.

 

[tsptalk]

8? RAM hog!

 

[nnuut]

I want 12

Re: Intrepid Timer's Investment Strategies

I'm satified with it. I know it took a massive amount to work to show the entire list on one page.

Good work Tom. Thanks

Bad decision to show only 100!!!

When the webmaster decided to only show the top 100 it became almost ridiculous and very frustrating to find my friends and to keep track of their numbers so you can find them, as is now required! This was supposed to be fun and interesting, maybe a bit of a friendly competition among your friends. This is a great site, but is becoming too cumbersome to utilize.

When you click on the show all at the bottom of the top 100, you can't sort by name to scroll down to yours or your friend's ID, why? The list sorts for the top 100 names at this point and you are left wondering still.

The person in charge should really think before implementing such a bad algorithm! Does it hurt anything to show all right up front? Or, do you just want to make more work for your users? Keep making it difficult to use and you will not have a site.
