Page input not working for world census rankings

Postby Ratateague » Mon Jan 07, 2019 3:40 pm

Tried to jump to the page with my ranking just now, but instead of going there, I was redirected to the first page.
https://www.nationstates.net/page=list_ ... &start=NaN
Instead of
https://www.nationstates.net/page=list_ ... tart=86720

To clarify, I clicked on the "..." button, input a number, then pressed enter.

What number did you enter?

As in, what precisely did you type into that box?

Initially, 8673. Then, all sorts of numbers. Nothing worked until I clicked on one of the preset number buttons and manually edited the URL from there.

I can only reproduce your result by inputting non-numeric data like "fg". Numbers work just fine. Could it be your browser breaking something?
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

You could try to fix it by clearing your cache and cookies. Plus you may have something on that's prohibiting the proper function maybe turn off ad blocker as well.

This will be caused by a JavaScript error in your device. If you're using a desktop browser, can you hit F12, click the "Console" tab, then try to reproduce the error and see if an error message is displayed in the Console?

Either way, please also supply your device/browser version.

I've also been able to reproduce this by putting a comma into the number, e.g. "8,673" instead of "8673".
