neo_maya Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 HI Everyone, I am new here and this is the first time I've joined a forum. I don't even know whether this message is gonna show up or not. (Fingers Crossed) I just hope that it will and someone will reply. Though I don't know yet if I am allowed to post this kind of stuff. Anyway, I would just like to say that I am just a novice and know nothing about anything. I just hope that I will learn lots of things from u guys and hope to make some new friends. I had this one question though - can I post ( For instance ) any kind of (say) mathematical problem or ask questions like - what is red blood corpuscle ? I mean how do I interact with u guys or this forum ? Again A BIG HI to all of u. PS : What is post a poll (Below the message compose box) ? What is set style (In the registration form) ?

Hey there! We're glad to have you! And yes, you can post anything you want in the general discussion forum neo_maya said in post #1 :Anyway, I would just like to say that I am just a novice and know nothing about anything. I just hope that I will learn lots of things from u guys and hope to make some new friends. I had this one question though - can I post ( For instance ) any kind of (say) mathematical problem or ask questions like - what is red blood corpuscle ? I mean how do I interact with u guys or this forum ? Of course! You're welcome to post any and all questions relating to science you have. If you know something about what someone else is asking, feel free to answer. The only rule about posting questions is that we're not doing your homework Don't get me wrong, you can post a question you have about homework, but you should try and exhaust other options first PS : What is post a poll (Below the message compose box) ? What is set style (In the registration form) ? Post a poll is exactly what it says: It allows you to post a poll, and people can vote on the options. Changing your style changes the way the forum looks. Currently, there are three styles, but the one that has the most features is "Orbitz". You can play around and see which one oyu like, though the other two aren't really "complete" stylesets. You'll be missing out on a lot if you don't use orbitz. Anyhow, welcome!
neo_maya Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 Hi, Thanks a lot. Sorry for not replying earlier. I am having this small problem - whenever I type the url of this site in the address bar, the page seems to start loading and then suddenly shows the cannot find website message. When I registeres here I selected the option to logon automatically and also selected the option to send me an e-mail to notify me when someone sends me a reply. But unfortunately neither options worked. Do u think that by any chance the site couldn't place cookies in my computer and that is what causing this problem ? If so, how do I set things right ? Then I searched for this site in google and followed the link it showed to get me here. Sorry for the botheration. Again Many Many Thanks. Neo
blike Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 hrrm... This morning the server was down a bit so that COULD have been the cause of your problem. The other possible cause is that you mispelled scienceforums.net, or typed scienceforums.com or something.. Regarding the email thing: It should work, I'll look into it. Maybe the mailserver was down yesterday, but I'm pretty sure it works. Double check that you have the option selected (in your user CP) and I'll double check that it actually works Regarding the automatic login thing: That feature only works if you don't delete your cookies. You might have IE set so that it automatically clears cookies every night, or something of the sort. Double check on that. Let me know how it goes

Let me know how it goes Hi, Sorry, I did clear the cookies myself and couldn't figure out that doing so may affect the automatic login. Now, there's no problem. But no mails yet. The options are set to their default settings. Thanks. Have a great day. Neo
