I'm getting the above message on a couple of threads today...both on PC and phone browser

this one
http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

and this one

Ditto for the "I can't make my own decisions in life and need you to tell me whether I should stop visiting Facebook" thread.

It's being caused by certain characters in the URL. Remove anything after &nmt= and you'll be able to see the page.

For example...

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...


Will try to fix as soon as we can. It's a tricky one...

What's wrong with this one (apart from the subject matter): http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I'm suddenly thinking this:


"Hi, this is Pistonheads Towers."
"Did you really have to call your thread hello'); DROP TABLE threads"
etc

I'm only getting it when I try and enter a thread from 'my contributions' not if I enter via the lounge. (the 'delete facebook' thread in my particular case)

Yep, you'll notice we do the URL encoding differently depending on which part of the site you're on. This is one of the things that needs to change.
