Bad Request Error

[JasonH20]

The website started giving me a "Bad Request" error this morning (see below). Since it mentioned something about cookies, I went ahead and deleted all my cookies; first with my browser tools and then later manually deleting all of them. Neither resolved the problem. I checked on another computer and saw that Scubaboard was still working, so I knew it was just my computer with the problem.

In a desperate panic to regain access to ScubaBoard I resorted to the time honored computer restart. Tada! That appears to have fixed the problem.

Anyways, here is the error my browser was giving me. I'm using Avant version 10 build 035, which I beleive is just a shell operating on top of IE 6.0. My OS is XP Pro SP2.

Thanks,
Jason

Now that is a new one! It looks like the cookies stacked up on your end, probably the result of a change I made last night to try and help people stay logged in (I change the cookie domain). For referance, what browser and version do you run?

Thats wierd, you can't just have a quote in your post! It kept giving my a pop up alert about my message being too short until I added the "_" out side of the quote.
