Title: Rare Find
Post by: US71 on October 14, 2010, 12:51:14 PM
I found an old 2d style sign for AR 126 this last weekend.  Last of its kind on 126, probably the last one in Baxter County.

Missouri still has a few out there, but Arkansas has been very aggressive in replacing theirs the last couple years.

I don't think I've ever seen a Missouri with Series A.  Did they use A or B on their three-digit routes?

Looks like B to me.

way to advertise a link that doesn't work.  Damn referer.  Damn firefox not being able to figure out that it's a direct link, as opposed to a leech attempt, and therefore stripping the referer once the 403 is served.

(unless your server doesn't even give 403 as part of the redirect to the main page, in which case damn your server ;) )

It didn't work for me, but I copied and pasted the URL into the browser and it worked.  Try that.

oh, I know how to get around it - I just hate that this browser misfeature has been around since the days of Netscape Navigator.

It ought to!  I have a nice custom 403 page and everything.

it redirects me to the main page.  I am not sure if a referer-interpreted-as-hotlink causes a 403.  It may be a different HTTP code and thus might need a different reaction.

Same here. Luckily, I was able to follow separate links to find what I was looking for ;)

This is not just a Firefox problem.  The same thing happens in IE.

Figured it out - it's a side effect of disabling hotlinking.  Unfortunately, it does not appear that I can disable hotlinking (i.e. showing my images directly) while preserving access via direct linking.  It's an all or nothing proposition.  If someone can tell me otherwise, I'd be appreciative.
