By the way, that progress bar is the oldest part of the entire TMN program. Original code. I mean, just look at this comment. this.setBar = resetBar; //doing this inline causes unexpected bugs in early NS4 haha, NS4 is referring to Netscape Navigator 4! That old bit of code is EXTREMELY hard for me to wrap my head around today. I struggle to make edits to it. I attempted to obfuscate (and minify, before that was a thing) the code but then ended up just making it hard for myself to understand later. But that base progress bar code is so slim (very little code) and does the job perfectly in my opinion... so I made sure to carry it over. There are two progress meters... but they're telling you different things. And I feel it's more than just % and MB downloaded. The original progress bar is so simple in its design that I think it gives a better feel for what's happening sometimes. I'm still trying to work the date range selection into the My Results on mobile devices. Just need to make it look right. Trust me, I want it there too. For now, the only way to select date range on mobile is through the Connection Guide or Hourly Tool. I'll definitely change the way the date displays so that it shows the month as "Jan" vs "01" --- I actually can make it display in your countries default format too I just need to connect some other logic that's already built into the site. I can make an array of countries that use "MM-DD-YYYY" and another for "DD-MM-YYYY" --- then have it format appropriately. I plan on making that part of the future My Settings page. This will change the date format to your preferred setting across the site... but will also automatically default to your countries preference.

Thanks for showing me that. I was working all night in dark-mode and didn't notice that issue, the default value was lost somehow. I think what happened is I probably needed to revert something then hit [command]+z too many times. I can't think of another way 3 lines of code could just disappear like that. I'll work on some kind of auto reset for the date range. That setting is shared so that you can flow between the hourly average and your results, querying the same range. It's caught me like you were describing before too... but then again, the old version did too. Maybe I'll just expire the cookie after 1 hour or something like that, do you think that would help? The setting would unset 1 hour after your last query... as long as you're hitting queries in the database the cookie will keep resetting the 1 hour time.... maybe even set it for a lower value.

I noticed you visiting just now, (very cool that you're still here) clicked your profile and realized that you had posted on this topic. Something I wanted to mention. Just want to let you guys know that TMN now employs what's called a Service Worker... it's pretty awesome. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/service-workers/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Service_Worker_API This enables TMN to work offline, obviously you can't test like that but you can visit pages you've been to recently. (put your phone in airplane mode or disconnect your connection while visiting TMN and you'll see what I mean.) One of the major benefits for us here is that the automatic test will now resume once the connection is back online. I had it kick in once on my cell phone under normal real world use and it amazed me. ? My connection dropped out right at the end of an upload test. I got the connection dropped warning, a couple of seconds later my phone connected to a different tower (I assume) -- TMN said "ONLINE" and the test then posted normally. A hiccup for the new version, would have 100% crashed the old version. I plan to incorporate more logic to make it log those instances to the database.

I'm happy that you like it and glad to hear that it's working properly for you now. Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know about the issue!

Actually, it wasn't what I was originally thinking. What I thought it was is built into both version... so that couldn't be it. I think I got it. Had to build a different failsafe in. Browsers from your era (mid 2017) and older will now use the old upload method... with updated styling. It had to do with the upload progress method I'm using. It uses browser functions that weren't put into the standard until more recently so the old browsers don't know what to do. If you use a more up-to-date browser, you'll see upload progress now. But before you update, can you please test again and confirm if it's working properly now?

After I fixed the last bug I had this song in my head ? Another bug bites the dust!
-
Thanks man, that definitely took quite a bit of debugging to become a reality. The db_search program wasn't originally built to query that way. BTW the old way with date and days still works for old links. One trick you can do is query any date range, then go up to your URL bar and modify the dateFull variable in the URL. e.g. https://testmy.net/memberstats?type=user_name&q=CA3LE&limit=25&dateFull=04-16-2019+%2F+04-23-2019 change to https://testmy.net/memberstats?type=user_name&q=CA3LE&limit=25&dateFull=04-16-2006+%2F+04-23-2010 I've exposed all of the db_search URL variables to give you this control and for easier sharing of specific queries. If I give that form field the ability to type then it will pull up an annoying autofill box. Especially on mobile, this was super annoying. So I have that field set to readonly. That Air Datepicker I'm using for that hasn't been updated on GitHub for over 3 years. It works great but the functionality isn't exactly what I want so I'm still looking for something newer. If you guys can find a better javascript date picker I'll be happy to work it into the program. Until then, I think Air Datepicker is excellent for what we need it for. Don't know if you noticed how you can get a wider selection by clicking the date at the top (inside the datepicker box) you can actually select a really wide range pretty quickly. You can pull all the way back to the decade. Select a year, then month, then day... click the date at the top again then select the end date the same way. Takes a little getting used to but I've become really quick at it, I think you will be too.
-
One thing you may not have noticed yet is how granular you can get by using the Hourly tool. Once you've made a selection, click the link below the graph to only query your results from the selected host. So that tool also helps aggregate and query by host. For those of us who have tested under many hosts, I think it helps a lot.

What?! Show me a screenshot! This link wasn't working until yesterday, maybe that's what you mean. I fixed that bug though and it correctly selects from the results page now. The actual link itself... is always 'true'. There is a variable on it but it's being set literally one line prior. Test it again and show me a screenshot. If it's really not showing for you it would really make me scratch my head. No big deal, I can just remove the variable... but it would make me wonder why that variable isn't being registered properly. That would be really weird.
-
Fixed! Thanks for catching that... very odd error actually. It was a quick and easy find and fix though. Just not completely sure why that happened in that specific instance. It's like, even though I found the 15 characters of code that caused it... it's unclear to me why that would have been an issue. But that's programming for you. I agree. I don't think the majority of people out there will prefer dark mode all the time... but I like that there's an option now.

Closest back to back / Most consistent speed
CA3LE replied to i2d | ScruFFy |'s topic in Show off your speed
Two of the closest / most consistent test results back to back that I've ever seen. Post yours. TestMy.net Test ID : S9qR~Hz4b TestMy.net Test ID : tqPmSnIyT P.S. You just need to post test_id's (TID) and I'll make them appear like you see in my post -
Hi Ron525, thank you for being a long time member! And thank you for taking the time. After looking closer at your results it appears that you're on an older version of firefox. You're on 56.0 ... We're on like --- 67 now. So update firefox. But that's not it. That's not how I roll. ...THANK YOU! I program for this. I'll adjust my rule for that function so that it works in your browser too... it's really easy but I'll have to do it tomorrow because I'm wrapping my night up. Basically, I'll tell it to use the old method in your instance because it's failsafe, we know it works. I literally just have to adjust the version number of firefox that it will accept for that function. Because I know that some of its methods are dependent on browser functionality released after a certain date. My research on those functions start dates must have been a little off OR your browser is literally on the EDGE of when that functionality that's needed to make that work properly was introduced. At any rate, I'll make sure to make that work properly under all circumstances. This is why your input is so valuable to me. I'd need a million computers to test a fraction of the circumstances you guys can do in one week. I'm not kidding. I can't do this without you guys. Again, thank you for taking your time, you're making TMN better.

Please let me know what you think of the new design, experience and functionality so far. Include any issues you have or recommendations for improvements. Try Dark Mode too and let me know which color scheme you like the best. To toggle Dark Mode scroll to the bottom the TMN homepage and click "Dark Mode" -- (note: these themes will be carried over and connected to the forum themes when I start the separate styling of these forums.) Your feedback is very important and appreciated.
-
Nice. Thank you for the update. ?
-
I made you a Dark Mode. use the following URLs until I build in the options screen. To set Dark Mode visit https://testmy.net/?themeCSS=dark-mode To revert to default visit https://testmy.net/?themeCSS=default Hope you like it, I'll continue to make adjustments.

It's strange because it's output compression and html/js minify messing with it. We had caught this bug earlier but I accidentally forgot to do those edit on my master file so next time I made a change I overwrote the update. /sigh They're falling back in line with each other, can you please test again and confirm that it's resolved. --- what's odd about that issue is that it reacts different under different situations. Glad you helped to catch it the 2nd time. I'll make sure that edit sticks this time! - thank you!
-
@HubCity I think your speed has probably returned to normal. You can toggle the old version on the bottom of the homepage and test with the old version if you'd like. The results should fall in line with each other. The upload test has an improvement that allows a quicker submission so in some situations you may see a very slight improvement. Download test... I think you'll see, it's the same test, just new styling.
-
Forgot, the variable I used isn't in the old version. Should be good now.
-
You only see that happen in this instance, right? I see that the EU consent management platform (EU users only) is loading in your top bar there. Can you confirm that it's no longer doing that please?
-
Thank you for the feedback, I totally agree. Actually I started to build in same background but as an option. Some colorblind people have contacted me and told me certain areas area hard to read. It will be a future option you can toggle when I finish the settings page... I'm gathering together options and then I'll set that page up for you guys. To switch back and forth between the version go to the TMN homepage and click "Old Version" at the bottom. From the old version you can select the "New Version" the same way. As for Dark Mode... I'm going to work on this for you today because I want it too! I dark mode my life so it's about time my own website has it. With the new design it's much easier for me to build new things like that, it's just built on a better base. I took a minute and applied the "background-noise" theme (that's what I call it anyway) to the new version. Toggle it and let me know if that's easier on your eyes. Need to put screenshots on that homepage (like the old version has) now that I have that done.

I believe this is an error with the browser. Because of how you describe it... I also tested with the same exact options as you did with no issues. The test is overloading your browser... I've seen it happen but it's always an indication of client-side software weakness... Keep in mind, this test is designed to use your resources to expose weaknesses. Install the normal Chrome or Firefox... even use Edge. And then please give it another try. I see you've selected the old version, I highly recommend using the new version, many bugs are being corrected. Any reason you're selected on the old version? Browsers will reset the process if it crashes... this is abnormal behavior testing here.
