I have a mac and was going to start a diary. I have no desire to add internet explorer to my mac. Should I just keep lurking or do I have any other options??

Get VM Ware or some other patch that'll allow you to run IE. Use someone else's PC?

Just out of curiosity, why the requirement for IE?

The site only allows uploads through netscape and ie. Both are not really Mac friendly. Oh well 65 cc day 19 doing ok in my book. I'll continue to view the progress of others!

I just did a test using Firefox on a Mac and it seemed to work.

Here is a screen-shot of my upload:

I have a 1 yr old PC and am having difficulty starting/entering my diary. Every time I try to enter a posting to the diary, I hit "submit" and get the following error message.
Microsoft OLE DB Providerfor SQL Server error '80040e14'
Line 1 : Incorrect syntax near','.
/scripts/bpdb.asp,line19
If anyone understands computer gibberish please help.

Are you attaching a picture and, if so, does it have any special characters in the file name: commas, colons, semicolons? If so, remove the special characters from the file name and try again.

If it isn't the file name, it looks like there is a problem on the back-end, specifically in the SQL the ASP page is executing to insert into the SQL Server database.

Archelon, that's the message I got when I tried to post to my diary with Google Chrome. When I post to my diary I use IE with no problems.

Archelon,

I have received that exact message three or four different times throughout the season thus far.
I use Firefox.

I think that iPhoto always uses the date when uploading pictures and it has a comma in it. I just downloaded firefox and had the same problem. Any other ideas out there?? Borer are you using iPhoto or something different like adobe?
