BBC Homepage Problem
 

Suddenly lost all localisation on the BBC homepage, weather, local news etc.

When I click on the link which asks you to set your location for news/weather etc my postcode is already there. If I choose weather then my local forecast appears, but it doesn't on the home page.

Anyone else seeing this?

Update - if I go to the weather page my postcode is set already & I get a link to local news, but www.bbc.co.uk still asks me to set my location under local news & gives me central London for weather. Lost all content layout customisation as well...

So I'm not the only one seeing this problem. Did you install the latest set of MS updates?

Re: BBC Homepage Problem
 

Yes, running Windows 7, plus FF just updated to 3.5.3 but not sure how that could have affected it. All bbc.co.uk cookies are still present...

I'm still on FF 3.0.13. Other sites that use cookies seem ok. It also is ignoring the 'profile' of items to display(eg News, Business, Sport).

Same for me, but was OK earlier. I think it's a BBC problem.

Well, I've submitted a website fault report. Wait to see if it gets fixed... :shrug:

Thank god it just thought it was me, have spent two hours checking all settings. This after having just recovered my system from a major failure and still not happy all running smooth. Also on FF 3.5.3 with cookies protected for BBC, i have also left website fault report.

Appears to be fixed now. Got localisation back, but had to redo page layout to get it as before...
