When I try to do a vote on the Drobe site, I get the message 'you must
have cookies enabled'.
I'm pretty sure this has been the case ever since moving over to NS
from the O1 and O2 days. That's over two years.
However, Drobe is the only site that does this to me, and I use many
sites which are chock full of JavaScript and where I have to log-in.
The curious thing is that the Drobe index page has NO JavaScript. So
could it be that it's further back in the Server code?
After all this time, a few days ago I got round to asking Chris
Williams to sort this out, so great minds are presently at work on
this. :)
