[Deptheads] Strategicon - Submission issues

Thanks Tanya,

    I saw the note.  That should be enough to stop the multiple submissions.

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1 installed.  I am using the most current version of Firefox.  This problem started about a month ago, maybe a little longer.

Hi all,

I'm aware of the problem, but there are a couple of catches.

1.
So far, the only people that have been affected by this that have confirmed that they are using to submit, are submitting using Windows 7 or a more recent Windows OS. I have no access to these OSs.

I need to know from everyone that is experiencing this problem what OS and version and what Browser and version they are using.

2.
Kid #2 is due any day now, and we still have no one to help with the website, specifically, the back end. Hence, even if I'm able to reproduce the problem on a machine I have constant access to, the chance of it getting fixed before Orccon 2013 is slim to none.

I have put a note above the submit button, which will hopefully cut down on the repeats and get us more specifics on the problem source. I hope this helps, because it's all I can do at this time.

So far at least, we haven't received any notices of con pre-reg being affected, and that also uses the same DB.

It seems to be any write access to the database that is "sticking".  I get the same result when approving or denying an event.
