F&C web page (was F&C kits)
|
Guys
The problem is not that the F&C web page uses proprietary features of IE. The problem is the Javascript toc.js file here -- http://www.funaroandcamerlengo.com/toc.js For some reason in Firefox and perhaps other browsers (but not IE) this produces an error "window.event has no properties" You can Google for this and you'll get lots of hits. There may be some difference in Javascript libraries between Java (Sun) and Microsoft although some web sites say that Firefox should handle "window.event". I have a tool called Firebug loaded into my Firefox browser. Whenever there is a run-time error in the page, I get a little error symbol in the lower right hand corner of my browser and if I click on it, it opens up a page that shows me precisely what is wrong. But what I usually do is hit the "open page in IE tab" feature which is also loaded into Firefox, that lets me look at pages with IE features, without leaving Firefox. Tim O'Connor |

Though an excellent extension (I've used it when I was still running Windows), it is unfortunately not available for those running Linux. For Linux users, in this instance, I'd recommend the Dillo browser. And now I'll shut up on this topic, and go back to modeling. :) Frank Valoczy Vancouver, BC ----- http://hydrorail.hostwq.net/index.html - Rails along the Fraser http://hydrorail.rrpicturearchives.net/ - Rail Photos |

Why not just contact F&C to tell them of the problem? After all, it's his problem and he should fix it. - Al Westerfield

I tried years ago; it¹s still broke.
Knock yourself out. -- Thanks!

That¹s hardly necessary, and beside, it can get you banned on this list.
8^) I¹d be satisfied if someone with a lot more web skills than I offered to fix it for him. -- Thanks!

As for web skills, count me out too...that one web page I had to do in college was enough for me...too tedious and boring. My modelling skills are probably just barely above the level of my web page skills at this point. If I were to head his way, it would be to try to buy some kits, especially with the PRR TM8 being an upcoming project on another group (at least this time I mentioned a steam era FC). Tim Barney |
