Eric Noah or any moderator this is of uppermost importance! [take 2]
there is an DIV tag in the bottom of this page right now (I huess it is the footer code), remove that tag immediatly since it clogs up the enworld server.
And do it right as soon as you see this.

If there's one dragon, it's a solo monster.
If there's five dragons, they're standard monsters.
If there's a dozen dragons, either most of them are minions or your DM is tired of the campaign.

You might have better luck posting this in the Meta forum.
Also, while the extra URL hit does happen on every page, so I could see where you're coming from, perhaps they implemented the counter because they wanted it there?

What he's trying to say is that there's an iframe (inline frame) tag generated with this page that attempts to load a counter. Since the counter isn't responding, it delays the loading of the page by the browser. It's unlikely that it has any serious effect on the server response speed however. Usually such problems may be solved by the expedient of hitting the browser stop button after several seconds of hanging. Mozilla at least handles it pretty gracefully.

Sorry, yeah as tarchon said , I'm a bit tired (havn't slept for 36 hours now and noticed this while changing around some stuff at ENW), sicne I havn't gotten admin access to the boards I have to ask others to remove this so the server stops to choke.
Thanks fer the translation of my waaay to boggled heads english and html lingo tarchon!
It seems like I have found an emergency solution for this now, please move this thread to META and I will post any updates to the problem there and delete that other thread.

OK forget my emeergency solution, remove the IFRAME tag at the bottom of the page if you possibly can do so.

Originally posted by EricNoah I wish I could help but I don't have a clue what to do.
well in the admin system for the boards there is a sectio that handles headers and footers, in the footer there will be a code that says something about an iframe.
Try and remove that but only the iframe stuff!
