Does the beta handle the Sprint Pic site any different than 8.6?

[gbm85]

Yep. Everything just works. Download, View Slideshow, and View Original.

that's cool. I'll have to try it. I still think I'll use my script. It quickly opens the pictures full screen without all the rigamaro of scrolling, clicking and dropdowns.

I get the error... 'http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/? .... " couldn't be opened

Line:
Contents = ReadFile(link)


BTW, I have Opera mini 3.x, beta 4, and 8.65 on my phone. Just trying to figure out which one I like.

sticky this please. I'm tired of seeing everyone ask about the mms pic fix solution (or lack thereof)

I'm getting this error and I'm using Opera 8.65. Please help. THanks

I'm still getting this error.

I'm Running Kirvin's new 1.0.4 rom with the attached .cabs from this thread. Does this workaround not work with this ROM? Thanks

Every single time you run the script, you must have previously highlighted & copied the URL from the mms message. Copy it then immediately run the script. If you try to run the script a second time, without copying the URL a second time, you will definitely get this error message.

If you are still having issues, I can think of another scenario that might be causing this error. On your PC, open the script in Notepad, and go to lines 33 & 34. It will look like this..

# Give it 6 seconds open the page
Sleep( 6000 )

chane the 6000 to something larger, maybe 15000 (15 seconds). Copy the script back to your PPC and run it (remembering to first copy the URL from any mms message you've received). Let me know if that works.

Okay i've changed the line within the script to read 15 seconds (instead of 6 seconds) and Sleep ( 15000 ) instead of ( 6000 ). I'm still getting the same error.

I'm using this with the Palm Threading App. I would love for this to work.

[bonuts]

I never tested with Palm Threading. Maybe that is the issue.

I sent you a PM hwnstyle21. Send me the URL you're using.
