Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Sunday, July 11 2004 04:53 Profile Homepage #0 Since it appears to be common practice to plug Spidweb-related sites here ( :P ), I just wanted to stop by to announce that the Encyclopedia Ermariana has recently been updated. Since quite a lot of people so far have complained about a horrible navigation on the site, I've at last changed the menu to have smaller buttons and be more overseeable in other ways. :) Since the new menu relies heavily on Javascript, you will either have to enable it or wait a few days for the new Javascript-free menu. Also, I've been told that Mozilla can't handle some of the script. I don't know what the reason is, since there appeared to be some parts that worked and others which didn't. If it doesn't work on your browser and you don't have access to an alternative one like Opera, you will also have to wait a few days for the alternative menu.

The taken articles in planning are many. When'll they get finished? :P -------------------- The Great Mister kommari@gmail.com[/url] Posts: 417 | Registered: Sunday, June 27 2004 07:00

Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Sunday, July 11 2004 11:31 Profile Homepage #5 By "doesn't work at all" do you mean clicking the buttons doesn't do anything, or that the browser crashes when loading the page? I'm working on an alternative menu right now. :) -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Monday, July 12 2004 00:56 Profile Homepage #7 That comes as a relief. It means that once I have the alternative menu in place, I don't have to make any changes to the original menu apart from adding a link for switching to the other menu. (If it crashed on loading, I'd have to take the original menu apart too, since it would be too late to switch to the other. ;) ) -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!
