I've noticed recently that anonymous voting doesn't work if no CNAME is included in the domain. For example, if I go to my site through this url:

http://nebulocity.net

and try to vote anonymously, I get no response when clicking on the "vote" link. However, if I reference my site through this URL:

http://www.nebulocity.net

anonymous voting then works fine. Anyone know how to get around this?

You have set you base_url as
http://www.nebulocity.net right?

when accessing it from http://nebulocity.net
Firfox think it's trying ajax to a remote site which it stops.

Will look for a solution

That is correct.

Thanks for looking into this

[savant]

add this bit

PHP Code:

   try {
    netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead");
   } catch (e) {
    alert("Permission UniversalBrowserRead denied.");
   } 


before every new myXMLHttpRequest ();

please try this and see if it works and post your results.

btw very nice site.

I added this to my /js/xmlhttp.js file, but still no luck. Is their a different file you wanted me add this to?

[savant]

in xmlhttp.php please.

This can be fixed with a proper .htaccess file

##### Re-directing Begin #####
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.mydomain.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
##### Re-directing End #####

this will force anyone going to www mydomain.com and make all urls drop the www

you would obviously change the mydomain to your own.

Chuckroast,

Thanks for the suggestion. I added a .htaccess file to my root directory with the following (since removed because it wasn't working):

##### Re-directing Begin #####
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.nebulocity.net/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.nebulocity\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://nebulocity.net/$1 [R=301,L]
##### Re-directing End #####

It is still not working though. In fact, after adding it, it caused a new window to open every time I clicked to go to a new section on my site. Is this .htaccess file allowing you to vote anonymously on one of your pligg sites? I'd be interested in seeing a live example if you have one.

Thanks!

Hi konakevin

Yeah, I have anon-voting available on http://scooptube.com

I'm using that same code in my .htaccess file and it seems to work fine for me.. I can post my entire .htaccess file if you would like to try that.. just change the domains to yours.. Hope that helps

##### Re-directing Begin #####
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.scooptube.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.scooptube\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://scooptube.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Okay, I changed the .htaccess file to do the opposite of yours so that it forces all requests to www.nebulocity.net:

##### Re-directing Begin #####
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://nebulocity.net/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^nebulocity\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.nebulocity.net/$1 [R=301,L]
##### Re-directing End #####

And this has fixed my problem. Thanks for all the help!
