I'm trying to post my trip report for my recent BA flight JNB-LHR but keep getting the following error each time I try ?|

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /forum/index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

From previous experience, the forbidden error (and other odd errors) comes up if you're posting via an iPad/iPhone and using one of its extended keyboards, like the emoticons - the server doesn't understand those codes and therefore throws up all sorts of errors.

If it's not that, it'll take a bit more investigation.

Yep I can confirm the emoticon theory Pete as it did it with me on my last TR :? Took me ages to work it out ?|

I was trying to post from my MacBook Pro at home and also a Windows PC at work.

Thanks.
