Browser hang on 3G

[jakes19]

Hi
First english is not my best way to express my self, but I will try.

I started a new program and site in South Africa (I don't think I'm allowed to post the link here) and the script is written in php.

It work like this when people join they can upload their stuff and can also use html and photo's, now the problem is and it looks like it is only vodacom customers on 3G, is when they come to a certain step (there is 7) the browser window just open halfway and then the program (site) just hang.

If they use the back button in browser and go back to where they don't have to upload anything then their is no problem. Can any one maybe think what the problem can be.

Thanks
Jakes19

First, run the site and that particular page that 'hangs browsers on 3G', through http://validator.w3.org/, and when all html etc errors & warnings have been fixed on your site, then retry it from a 3G connection.

Hi ic,

is there any specific html error or warning that can cause this?

Don't think so, any non-compliance with w3 standards is likely to set off the alarm bells, it's a Cisco system AFAIK.

Generally it is frowned upon when a first post pops up linking to a website, IOW jakes19 has followed the correct protocol by not posting a link in his post, once the site is ready to be exposed to us, jakes19 should consider editing his forum signature to add a link to his new website [one commercial link is allowed].

oh i see, thanks for clearing that up...well anyways he is sure that the site wont work in vodacoms.

i do have 2 websites in my signature but only one is commercial

Using the internetvpn APN can bypass such problems, however for new sites, it is IMO best to fix any w3 standards compliance issues first before launching the site.
