Title: Front page blues
Post by: Big John on July 09, 2009, 11:16:36 AM
The "look" of GBCA.org has changed again.  One of its most useful features, the "Blues", ie the list of links to both gbca business and other orgs websites has disappeared.  As has a post I made suggesting adding Regatta  Network to the list.  Anyone else miss it.  How do I find the race schedule?  Or am I missing something?

While not a fan of the forum style now, I can tolerate it, but please give directions on finding those links!
Thanks
John

%$#@ &%*$* F%^$ing Microsoft.  Internet Explorer 8 broke it. Fixed by using Compatability view.  Sorry

You said it!!!! I downloaded IE 8 or 7 or whatever it is and it keeps locking up.  I have downloaded Google Chrome and it is working pretty well....so far!...  :-\

Mozilla Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/) is probably the most popular browser used after IE. As a webmaster myself I've never liked Google Chrome because it sometimes likes to display things differently than all the other browsers. That being said, Chrome is certainly a better choice over IE. Another good browser choice is Opera (http://www.opera.com/).  ;)

I agree about Chrome displaying things strangely.  I have my own home page created with Front Page, and Chrome doesn't recognize some of the tags.  Firefox is good, but I get an Active X warning when I come back to my home page. I'll have to check out Opera.

And I agree about FireFox.  Very nice professional browser.  On Mac's the new Safari 4 is also interesting.  IE on a Mac just stinks.
