So for Christmas, I got a Nokia phone with internet capability.

Obviously, me being me, I tried to use it to get onto Tvtropes, but I ran into a problem. I can't log on.

After I fill out my username and password, and go to click the "Bake a new cookie" button, it simply won't click. And that's the extent of the issue.

I can still read the site fine, forums and all, just that for some reason I can't log in.

I spread my wings and I learn how to fly....

Do you have to enable javascript? That button needs javascript to work.

'tch.

That may be the problem, but it's further compounded because I don't know how I would go about enabling Javascript.

I realize that that probably makes me retarded, but me and computers....we don't understand each other that well.

Dunno if it's related, but every other button on the site seems to work fine. Just that one and the new account button.

Try this: Open the Web > Options > settings > General > Java/ECMA script > Enabled.

Does the make-known button click?

Neither of the buttons click at all when there's anything in the type boxes, but when they're empty, the "you'll need a handle and password for this to work" notice comes up.

Otherwise, they click not at all.

Does your phone support cookies? Some don't, that might be related.

BTW, I'm a chick.
