...clicking the Undo button or the 'End' button does nothing, BTW.

I am also getting the same message whenever I try to review expired cards. Can`t review anything, as "Oops! Invalid JSON response" and "Oops! Connection timed out." keeps popping up. Tried to reconnect, no results so far.

What is the problem???

I have had the same issue on IE 6 (will have to check to verify, but I'm pretty sure its IE 6).  Also had an issue today where it didn't save the status of my last 10 cards at the end.  It warned me that navigating away from the page would cause the status to be lost and to hit END, but END didn't seem to do anything so I went back to review and redid the 10 it lost.

I haven't seen either issue on Firefox 3.5, just on IE.

Edit: yep, IE6

@LazyNomad  The pages have more requests to javascripts and stylesheets, but there is no optimizing process yet for merging these together. That's something I really want to do.

It would be very helpful if you can tell me what pages feel noticably slower than on your previous connection or compared to previous website. We're talking page loading time or responsivity here, not workflow/features.

Fabrice,
when I am using IE8 or Opera 10 beta and try to sign in from this page (http://kanji.koohii.com/login) - I enter my username and password and click "Login" button, then browser tries to login, but stops early and download the main page (http://kanji.koohii.com/) instead of login me in.

when I use Firefox 3+ (by the way, have updated my browser to 3.5 version today), I sign in without any problems, but when I click on orange "xxx due cards" button to review I almost always (99,9% of probability) get the message "Oops! Invalid JSON response".

Thank you for the detailed report above, I really need this to identify the problem.

I can't say anything about Opera 10, or any browser in fact, so long as they are beta versions. I had to uninstall Chrome 4 beta for example, because it messed up the left side column of the media wiki homepage.

The login page does redirect you to the homepage, that's normal, but then you should see the "quick summary" section at the top of the page, and the welcome message with your username, indicating that you are logged in.

Are you sure you haven't disabled cookies or use other related plugins in Firefox? The website needs cookies for session management, just the way most websites do.

Regarding speed, yes, after each website update you have typically a full download of all javascripts and stylesheets. The same happens anytime I make fixes or tweaks, except in that case only the updated scripts/styles are downloaded. The pages do have more requests (5 scripts and 3 styles on the reveiw page) which needs to be merged somehow (to do), but the site will always be slower on an empty cache.

My problems with the new site continued today. No JSON error messages, but complete inability to see flashcards on the Review page...all I got was a blank blue rectangle. This was on an English version of Firefox 3.0.15 running on a Japanese Windows XP, if that's likely to make any difference.  I changed to IE 8.0 and had no problems at all.  BTW, I've had no login problems with either browser.  IE 8.0 alsodoesn't seem to be producing the quick reveal of the kanji being reviewed, either (which I reported to you by separate email today) although I'll double-check that on my Mac tomorrow.

Hope this helps with your diagnosis, Fabrice.

More specifically the only thing I changed was in web-antivirus option of Kaspersky 6.0
The default option was to check the data stream for viruses. So you can check viruses on-the-fly.
I changed it to checking with bufferization. That made all the difference. After bufferization for antivirus checking was allowed everything became smooth.
