    • Web Browser Compatibility
      5

      The new gamma version of the site offers a lot of new options for members. In order to support some of the newer features as well as keep the general public ahead of the security and exploitation curve, I have upped the web browser requirements for site usage. Due to time constraints, the current version of the site has only been tested in Firefox 4+, but you should be fairly safe if you are running any one of the following browsers: Firefox 4+, Safari 5+, Internet Explorer 8+ or Google...

    • Web Browser Requirements

      To all our current members, According to official news presented by the Firefox development team, Firefox version 2.0.0.x will only be maintained with security and stability updates until mid-December, 2008. Since this is their official notice of support termination for Firefox version 2, I will be following suit. If you have not done so already, please download and install Firefox 3 some time before the end of the year. Similarly, Internet Explorer version 8 is out in beta form at the moment...

    • Firefox 3

      In case some of you missed the initial release of Firefox 3, they managed to set a world record for number of downloads in a single day. That being said, I have been using and testing in Firefox version 3 since the release date and all is well. As a matter of fact, it's actually improved quite a bit.Firefox 3 contains many improvements over version two, one of the most notable being the new and improved awesome bar. Among these improvements and bug fixes, there are also two well documented...

    • Jagged Fonts in Firefox

      For those of you who use Firefox as your primary web browser, you might have noticed that font rendering is less than stellar. The fonts take on very jagged edges, losing their smoothness and crispness. It's purely an cosmetic issue, since the text generally remains legible, but depending on the size and type of font, the effect can be quite annoying. It is one of only two drawbacks that I can find with using Firefox. Anyway, if you are using Windows, there is a solution available from...

    • FYI: Site Requirements and General Support

      In case outsiders or new members want to know what's required to utilize this site's features, I have posted Site Requirements on the home page (for the time being). Browser support is limited to Internet Explorer 6, Firefox 1.5 and Netscape 8 or their respective higher versions. Preliminary testing with Opera 9 appears to function in all areas except the Rich Text Editor portion. If you are using Opera, I suggest you deselect the RTE option under your account settings. I stress again that...

    • Firefox 1.5.0.6 Now Available

      I realize that you guys probably don't keep up with every single release the moment it becomes available. But I thought I'd let everyone know that the latest release for Firefox is out. Hopefully, since Grandpa P. just downloaded his, he has the latest version.

    • Potential Problems with Firefox Browsers

      Just fyi, I ran into an issue recently where the insert Link function in the text editor window would not work. As it turns out, it appeared to be problem caused by the combination of version 1.0.5 (the latest) and one or more extensions that I loaded into Firefox. Always keep in mind that if you utilize extensions, that these things are designed by programmers from all around the world and are free to anyone that wants to try them. That does not guarantee, however, that they are completely...

    • Some Minor Updates
      1

      Just a quick note on some new features/updates...A request was made to add a"Reply To" button for each of the comments so a person could actually respond to individual comments instead of just the blog. So be it. A"Reply To" comment now shows an"[RE: Comment #]" at the top and each comment gets a unique comment number associated with it (also displayed).Since the number of blogs is quickly going to overrun a single page, I've set the default selection up to only display blogs from the...

    • More Updates to Site Features

      Just a few notes on some new features that are either in place now or will be shortly...The tag clouds and tags within each blog entry have now been adjusted in how they work (slightly). Searching using a tag is exactly the same. However, it is now much clearer as to what tags are in use at any given time. When a particular tag is selected, it will be highlighted within the respective tag cloud as well as within the blogs. If no entries are currently selected, the"ALL" tag will be highlighted...
