While registering a new account, after inputting the user name, the "Checking if username is available" pops up. It isn't able to check whether the user name is available. The "Checking if username is available" line stays up continuously.

If it isn't easy to diagnose how to fix the problem, is there an easy way to just remove the ability to 'check if a username is available' so it never pops up?

My feeling is that this is due to the forced advertisements by GoDaddy.

<success> is available</success></object></layer></span></div></table></body></html><!-- adsok -->
<script language='javascript' src='https://a12.alphagodaddy.com/hosting_ads/gd01.js'></script>

Thanks for your quick response!

Do you know if there's a way to take off the check?

Try disabling AJAX. I'm not sure if the registration page is covered by that but it's worth a try. Right now I can't find the setting but I'm sure it's been mentioned somewhere.

I'm not too familiar w/ ajax, so I'm not sure how removing it would affect the rest of the forum. I couldn't find how to disable ajax anyway..

Can I remove the code for the "Checking if username is available" pop up?

None of the other AJAX functions will probably work properly anyway. You can disable it at Admin CP --> Configuration --> Settings --> Server & Optimization Options --> Enable XMLHttp request features?

That worked. Thanks!

What else will this disable ?
