trouble replying to posts

[Papakeith]

For the last two days, whenever I tried to reply to the post in Product Reviews-Questions titled " What Bar Bend for 6 Feet + ?? "
I get the following error:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home2/okiewan/public_html/forums3/admin/functions.php on line 567

Am I the only one?

Your ISP has "issues". Should be temporary. If once you press "sumbit" and the forums send word back to your browser to refresh the page (go to the forum display) and your browser does not respond within 30 seconds, the error happens.

I've heard of this before, it seems to just go away.

It seems to be just that one thread. I don't have trouble posting elsewhere.
Anyway thanks for the info. :)

Which thread please?

 

[Papakeith]

I got it figured out.
I went to the thread and posted "test" with no problems
I tried to edit it with my originally intended post(which contained a list). Wouldn't go. got the same error as above
I cut all the meat out of the post but left the list statement. worked fine.
Then bit by bit I added some of the meat back into the post and tried to send it. About half way through my list I would get the error.
I don't think that the board liked my attempt at formatting the list into columns using periods. I chopped out about 10 periods from the list and it posted fine. :)
If you want to look, it's in;

Come to think of it, Pokie had the same issue with the list (that contained a bunch of periods) of Dw attendees. Hummm...

Had the same problem in the fantasy forum when posting results if I used periods to divide scores instead if I use __ it works fine
