Description
Hey there-
I upgraded to D5.10 recently and I noticed that my ads aren't always showing up. I have two ads right next to each other and one shows up but the other doesn't. So I tried to check out the invocation code (using javascript) and they were both the same in OpenX but in the module I noticed the 'code' text area is so small, it doesn't seem to be getting all of the invocation code I paste in there.
I've also checked out the html of the page (using Firebug) and it shows that only a portion of the invocation code is actually going through... How can I fix this?
Thanks!

#1
should consider updating to drupal 5.11 and see if the problem doesn't correct itself. If nothing else you won't be running insecure code as you are with 5.10

I've played with it a bit and now I've noticed that it only seems to show one ad at a time. I changed the invocation code for the 2nd ad and it showed up! But then when I changed the invocation code on the 1st ad, it showed the 1st ad and not the 2nd!
Yea... I know I should upgrade to 5.11 but I'm very hesitant. My last upgrade to 5.10 went very badly. It destroyed half my site and I still don't have it back to where it was!

running insecure code should make you more hesitant but the risk is yours : )
I don't run ads, so can't help further with the ads issue.
good luck.

Ok. Now the ads are showing up, but they seem to come and go with a reload on different pages... could this be a memory limit issue or maybe the javascript isn't loading fast enough?
Thanks!

what version of OpenX are you running? I assume you are using the javascript invocation method? do you have a public site where one could check and see what javascript output is being generated for your site?
