User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6 In the page at http://www.sanktejo.com/asp/whc.asp (subscription required) a "No data available" error is returned during a very long (never-ending) page request. This site impliments a chat room via HTTP by suspending the page transfer forever, sending data only when someone chats. If nobody chats for more than 5-10 minutes Firefox times out, giving a "No Data Available" error. User must leave and reenter chat to continue. Possibly a WONT FIX (bad implimentation of chat by site), but it would be appreciated, as this is the only problem my mother has with Firefox, and won't let IE go enless fixed. Also, if there is a way to extend/disable the timeout period, that would be nice, but I can't find the option anywhere. Is there something in about:config that will disable time out messages? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log into chat. 2. Find/make a room where nobody is talking. 3. Wait 5-10 minutes. Actual Results: Error: No Data Available. Expected Results: Waited forever. Err, at least that's what the site designer intended. Have not tested in Win2k/Xp or other operating systems. Maybe with is a windows networking problem?
