Hi All,

I am receiving error reports from a small number of visitors to my website. They indicate that the following links will not render:

http://www.cumbwestmasons.co.uk/main/generic.html?all,Day
(http:// www. cumbwestmasons .co.uk /main /generic.html?all,Day) Remove spaces

http://www.cumbwestmasons.co.uk/main/generic.html

They can access all the other links on the site without problem. Can any one tell me what the problem might be and how to resolve it? As I said only about half a dozen visitors have reported this error and I am at a loss to be able to replicate the problem. They all reckon that they have Java enabled and they all use Windows XP.

In both cases they work fine for me with javascript enabled and I don't get a table without javascript enabled. I think you'd do a lot better to generate the table on your server, so as that people wont need JS on thier browsers.
There also seems to be something in your scripts that's not letting me right click, I can't find where that is, so I really think you'd do better without the scripts.

(Using Firefox 1.0.2 on Windows XP)

The table used to be fully coded in html and ran into seventeen individual tables of massive physical size (due to the different Masonic Orders and 'sort order' variations (ie by day, venue, name etc).

Changing it to javascript massively speeded up the load process - the first time the page is loaded all the info is cached and can be manipulated. It also reduced seventeen pages to one page! I would therefore want the javascript to remain.

Your problem with the right mouse button is intentional for several reasons.

I was hoping that someone could point me towards a site that is using a similar query using two variables (?***,****) so that I could get the visitors to try those links and see if they had the same problem thereby showing that it is an individual system problem and not a site problem.
