Saving File Hangs Up

[gardenwhispers58]

When I go to save a file, it hangs up on the "Saving File" box.

Refreshing the page seems to work and thankfully I haven't lost anything so far.

I like to save often. In the past I have lost hours of editing from power outages or lost internet connection.
I now make this a mandatory step.

Is this being worked on?

Is this not your own internet speed/bandwith rather than x10hosting? I used to have similar problems when connecting to the internet from a USB type modem.

The page saves.

The problem is...
When I click on the save icon the Saving "file.html" dialog box doesn't close after it saves.
I have to refresh the page to get rid of the box to continue editing.

I also had/have similar problems. They seem to have gone away now, but I am not for sure.

So i'm assuming you are editing files using text editor in cpanel on your files in web root. Really I would say this approach should be for minor final edits; i think there is a chance of file corruption on slow internet connection.

The best approach is to get files working on your own PC using something like wamp (windows) or xampp(linux)
once your web files and structure is up to par; then just load them to your web root. Editing files already in your web root over the internet is as I say for minor edits.

Thanks for the information nkranx10.
I did a search and found the site for WampServer and will give it a try.

ok install instructions are:

• Double click on the downloaded file and just follow the instructions. Everything is automatic. The WampServer package is delivered whith the latest releases of Apache, MySQL and PHP.
• Once WampServer is installed, you can add other releases by downloading them on this website. They will then appear in the WampServer menu and you will be able to switch releases with a simple click.
• Each release of Apache, MySQL and PHP has its own settings and its own files (datas for MySQL).

• The “www” directory will be automatically created (usually c:\wamp\www)
• Create a subdirectory in “www” and put your PHP files inside.
• Click on the “localhost” link in the WampSever menu or open your internet browser and go to the URL : http://localhost

One thing worth explaining; wamp has its own index.php which is connected to its GUI which you will use when
fort instance clicking on a phpMyAdmin link which is in the menu. Now all web sites must have an index file either index.jsp,index.php etc but you can not put your web site index file directly into the wamp WWW folder or it will replace wamps own index.php file.That is why it tells you to create a directory say called myweb inside the WWW directory. You then build your web site inside myweb, and you put your first file index.html, index.php inside myweb directory; it will then not clash with wamp own index file. So to see your web site if you created a directory called "myweb" in WWW of wamp to see your web on your own your own PC put http://localhost/myweb in the address bar of your web browser, it will automatically load the index file you put in it. After that put in more web files, say you create a "aboutus.html" in myweb then see it at: http://localhost/myweb/aboutus.html
To create navigation links you just put anchor links into your index file. Hope this makes sense.
