Refresh confirmation problem

Unread post by Paul-R »

Screenshot_20250208_073647_com.android.chrome.jpg
In the last couple of days, whenever I swipe down the screen to refresh the forum page on my Android phone I get this pop up interrupting the refresh. It doesn't happen on any other forum or when I refresh the screen using F5 on my laptop. It's a real annoyance and I would like it to go away. Is this something that can be fixed please?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Just tried it on mine Paul, no issues here - try emptying the cache for the site on your phone?

No, that hasn't done anything.

I've just tried restarting, also without success.

A week later and the annoyance is still there. Any more ideas?

I have not seen that pop-up in this context. It is probably an artifact of your browser, not the server.

Closing the browser window should fix that, but if it doesn't , try deleting server cookies (maybe in a burger icon at the bottom of this page).

I did your second suggestion first with no effect. However, then trying your first suggestion worked. How bizarre. Especially as none of the other 13 tabs I keep open were afflicted.

Thanks.
