Mileage Monkey Status Updates

[Grooba]

Thanks to both hauteboy and SLF for firstly creating it and keeping it available and up to date.

+1, thanks to all who contribute to this wonderful tool.

Is anyone else having difficulty with Mileage Monkey?

Most of the buttons and links seem to work, but nothing happens when I use the Oneworld Explorer Validator or Point to Point Go! buttons.

I've tried using the OWE sample itinerary as well as my own and have tried in Chrome, Safari and IE, but still no map or results below the input area.

Did some quick checks on MileageMonkey and it seems to be working for me.

Thanks Mal, must be something up on my PC. I'll use my laptop.

I haven't made any changes for a few weeks (flight updates due in the next few days though), so if it has worked OK for you in that timeframe it is more likely to be PC than site related. It is worth doing a full refresh (shift+refresh on Firefox, not sure the equiv on other browsers) to ensure all the components of the page are the latest ones and not locally cached older versions. If you still have problems, send me the full link of something you're having trouble with.

Thanks SLF, the site is working perfectly on my laptop, so you're right, a little glitch on my PC.

To help me narrow it down, is there something different about the way the Go! buttons for Point-to-point and Oneworld Explorer Validator work? All the other buttons work just fine and so perhaps I've made some change to something on my PC that only they use.

I said before that nothing happens with these two buttons, but that's not quite right. When I click the two Go! buttons, the Sharing link does appear, so something is happening. Also, if I've used one of the other functions to get a map up, the Point-to-point Go! button won't clear the previous map, but the Oneworld Go! button does.

Are the starfiles up to date? I have been searching for the current fares for OWE, DCIR22 and DCIR26 trips for a while. Where do I look?

Thanks in advance...

Those buttons do quite different things, hard to know what the problem might be though. You could try Firefox and enable the Web Developer-> Error console to see if it shows any problems. However I can't think why you'd have multiple browser problems from one PC but all being well on another.

Sorry, those are just convenient links to other sites ... I don't have a good source of the star files. Pricing can be done by filling in an itinerary using the one world tool; additionally if you have something like ExpertFlyer or KVS you can get base RTW pricing using those.

The Firefox 4 error console only has one entry for slfft.org and it is:

Error: window.addthis is undefined
Source File: MileageMonkey
Line: 1197


A similar section in Google Chrome shows


Failed to load resource addthis_widget.js
counter.jsFailed to load resource
show_ads.jsFailed to load resource
award.htm:1197Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'update' of undefined


I couldn't copy paste this section properly, but the 'addthis.widget.js' is in the same print as the other .js stuff.

 

[SimonM]

Hmm, the formatting of the Chrome error looks terrible, I'll try a screen shot.

Thanks Simon - looks like your PC is blocking third party javascript. Could this be the result of an IT Security policy being implemented? Or maybe you've installed some software to do this type of blocking? I've tested from IE, Firefox and Safari and it all seems to be working fine as far as I can tell.

 

[SimonM]

Thanks for that, I'll look into the script blocking.

The site works fine on my laptop, so definitely something about my PC.

Id that for http://www.slfft.org/mm/award.htm, http://www.mileagemonkey.net/mm/award.htm or both?

Both - reason from Websense - Malicious embedded link

 

[Mal]

I still have a websense support account. Will try and get that resolved... if I remember my password. Lol.

Thanks - I'm in contact with Websense to figure out how to get it fixed.

Thanks - I was on the phone to them when you posted that! I have a case open (even though I'm not a customer) and they've advised they should get back to me within 24 hours. I may need your help if this plan doesn't help, thanks for offering.
