And what OS is used in the majority of businesses?
It may be junk to you but it meets the needs of the masses, along with being the OS that most every other business apps is designed to run on.

And that, incidentally, is a great business strategy.
You're old enough to remember the old "Get em young and train em right".
Just what MS did. Gave their OS (?) at minimal price to high schools and colleges so that it was what the young and upcoming developers wrote their applications for.
Only the Fortune 500 companies that needed serious computing power used OS that were suitable for mission critical applications.
In my case AT&T / Bell Labs.

OOOOOOOOOooooooooooohhhhhhh I see now :sad:
I always wondered what people meant when they said they think the pipe is full; they need bigger pipes. :madgrin:
Does the pipes reference carry over to smoking dope, (legally) here in the great state of WA. Fourth best thing moving out here
2 daughters, and my new grandchild (son-in-laws are 5&6!!)

It ALWAYS shows 000000 in some configurations of IE9 and earlier.

It's been doing that for quite some time.
You have view the page in a newer version of IE...
Or one of the other browsers (Firefox or Chrome for example).
I haven't looked at the source code to see what the problem might be.
I am somewhat surprised that the site's apparently not tested in all browsers.
I just don't have the time or patience to fix OPP. I do quite enough of that at work.

The majority of people use something other than IE these days anyway.

Thanks E. A., agreed on the surprise that it doesn't look good on IE9. It is very difficult though to design web pages that are generic enough to keep all web browsers happy. It can be done, but the web pages may look rather generic themselves.

how many of those are numbered -- all in $1000 (as I impatiently wait for my number to be sent to me -- having been part of this community as 100 all in since 2013)

Hi Stephen, if I understand your question, it's about 1/3 that have the all-in $1000. EM sends out the spot-in-line emails about once every 2 months, someone else can chime in with a guess on the date of the last sending.

Hey Jeff.
Copy that!
Just to be clear though...
The site looks great in IE9.
It looks almost exactly identical to the Firefox view.
The only difference that I know of is that the counter doesn't work.

Now, as far as getting good content to work across browsers...
There are a lot of conditional statements, hacks and work-arounds.
The W3C frowns on a lot of them, but they generally work.

Well, I got to see the commercial on TV and I wasn't impressed. And 259 new reservations with or without it kind of proves I'm right. I almost missed it, too much small talk and fancy music. I started to walk out of the room when I recognized it. It came across as boring and time to grab a cup of coffee. Because I am involved was the only reason it caught my eye. Sure it was exciting to see it, but it wasn't bright enough. BIG BOLD LETTERS "AMERICAN MADE, $6,800.00, 84 MPS". Then show the vehicle.
I have been paying attention to commercials lately and before another dime is dropped on this one, I'd like to see it changed.
