Let me preface this with I have been on Yahoo over a year, and my html hasn't changed, so this is a new, weird problem I am encountering.

Is it me, or is anyone else having problems in the last week posting on Yahoo. There is no pattern to the problems I have had...one time an auction goes right on, and the next time when I hit PREVIEW I get:

The page cannot be displayed

Then when I question that, I get:

No category specified for submission.

Which is never true. I get this sometimes regardless of what category I am posting to - and it can happen over and over, and the same ad can work perfectly one time, and when I go to repost, it can encounter this weird THE PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED, and refreshing, just pulls up the same response.

Sometimes it is taking 10 minutes of submitting and resubmitting to get an auction to post.

I am wondering, with the fee system they are coming with, if they are messing so much with their technical system that it is causing this or if it is me? Anyone else experiencing this???

(Okay, I know most of you are getting out of Dodge, so to speak,} BUT if you have encountered this problem I surely would like to know, as it is getting terribly frustrating.

It's probably another glitch. Wait 10 minutes, rinse, lather, and repeat.

Heygrape

Don't think that will work, I tried that and it is still occurring - perhaps it is the soap I'm using!

Seriously, I'd sure like to hear from anyone who has encountered this glitch or whatever it is.

I had a problem similar to your problem several weeks ago with bulk loader telling me my csv file didn't have enough rows. On occasion it would load fine. Next time I would upload file
I would receive error message several times. After repeated deletes and reloads it would finally load correctly!

Thanks for your response - weird, since this thread has gotten so little response, apparently not many folks are encountering this problem - but it is still happening to us!

It is like trying to post on eBay when eBay is terribly busy and you can't get their preview page to come up.

I thought that might be the problem, but it doesn't seem to relate to any particular time of day.

Well, glad it isn't just me. It was better today, but intermittent and was still occurring.

Very weird.
