Is this on the mobile site or the regular site? I've taken a look at the shed suggestion thread and it's working on my PC.

confused

Bear in mind Opera Mini can behave strangely with links, because of the way it works. Opera Mini sends the URL to Opera's own servers where the page is opened and a compressed, trimmed down version is send back to make for faster mobile browsing. This can have odd effects on hyperlinks.

iv just tried tin mobile site and its not finding it.
Pistonheads usualy works fine on my setup and this problem has only happened in the last 24 hours.
its only playing up on links to ph from ph.

We haven't changed anything at this end which would be causing this, so I suggest that it is something Opera Mini is doing which is causing it.

If you can, post the url it is trying to send you to and I'll see if I can spot anything odd about it.
