The name and password got must be wrong. You have to go to TIMS sign on with your TIMS name and password. Then down towards the bottom on the right hand side is another name and password to sign on to the q and a area.

Yeah....

I logged into the TIMs, and I scrolled down to the other forums password info. I used that and still nuthing.... I can get logged into the forum, it just gives me no rights..

All,

This was posted on the FIRST Q&A:

I was able to post to the FRC Submit a Question section today by using Internet Explorer instead of Mozilla Firefox. An IE tab within Firefox did not work.

Perhaps that will help?

They're using vBulletin .. same as we do here. If you can post here with no problem, then there's a good (98%) chance your browser is not to blame -- they must have something misconfigured on the forums or with your account(s).

As a side note .. anybody know what "An IE tab within Firefox did not work." means?

There's an extension for Firefox, cleverly called IE Tab, that will let you click a button and open a page in a new tab (or in the same one), but rendered by the IE engine. This is a good way to look at IE-only pages without having to actually open IE and copy-paste and all that. Definitely worth a try if you find yourself doing that a lot.

:-( :-( :-( I still cant post to the FIRST Q and A .... can someone please post a question for our TEAM...

We nee to know what the angle of the green light box is... We know it is angled down at the floor on the mount, but we cannot find the angle of which it is mounted....

You are attempting to post in the "Ask a question" subforum, right? It took me a few minutes to figure that out when I first asked a question.
