Can't post comments

[robert1975]

Hello, since 2 or 3 days ago, people can't post comments in my photoblog. I don't know the reason, but when write something and send in internet explorer (version 7), it appears the classic 404 not found! It never happened before!
I tried in firefox and works right.
Anybody can tell me what's the problem, please?

is it only the 404 error or does Pixelpost give an additional reason?

In the last three weeks, I've had 3 folks tell me they couldn't post comments on my blog and, after a little digging around, realized it's specific to Internet Explorer 7.

I've been using Firefox for quite a while so I hadn't noticed, but when I tried to add a comment to using IE7, nothing happens (just a little blink of the screen). I switched off the pop-up blocker in IE7, but still no comment window.

I'm still using PP v 1.6 (planning to upgrade eventually) but if anyone can give me an idea of what might be going on, I'd appreciate it.

Okay, I've fixed my issue by upgrading to PP 1.7.1. It wasn't exactly simple - had to upgrade my database from MySQL 4 to MySQL 5 first - but if a database illiterate like me can do it, it should be easy for most others.
