What Are Scripting Errors

A scripting error does not mean that a page is non-functional. It can simply be a difference in the internal working of your brand and version of browser - as you have it configured. It can be a temporary overload of a server that we exchange services with, like AddThis. You are normally safe in continuing. We trap Scripting Errors and offer an Email and Print function on the data captured. Please complete and email the error trapped so we can review it.

Cross-Browser Considerations

There are several brands of browsers you can choose from. The most popular are: Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, and Linux Konqueror. We test with these products to make sure our website is as compatible as possible. We can miss finer points. If you are using one of these browsers, our Quick Links Tree Menu option has a Browser Configuration link. Check our recommendations there and try again.

Other Browsers

If your browser is not one of the products mentioned above, it may have some special features, or configuration options, that are incompatible with our site. Most browsers use the Trident browser engine (Internet Explorer), the Mozilla Gecko engine (Firefox), the KHTML engine (Konqueror), or the Web-kit engine (Safari and Chrome). If your browser is not part of these families, make sure the data we have captured in the ENVIRONMENT section of an error reflects this. If not, please add your browser information to the end of the error box.

We are not promising to make adjustments to our pages, if your browser is not a main-stream product. You may want to add another browser to your system, as an alternative.

More Information

(+) Three Ways to Make PDF Files Searchable - Part #1
The following is a Plus Edition article, written by and copyright by Dick Eastman. Some PDF files can be searched for any word or phrase. Other PDF files cannot. Until recently, the ability to allow searches was at the PDF file creator's option: anyone who created a PDF file could decide whether or not to make the files searchable. That option has now become moot as several companies have created solutions to convert any non-searchable PDF files into searchable PDF files, regardless of what the file creator intended. Why should you care? I would suggest there are many needs for...
Price Wars: Amazon's $139 Kindle
I have written quite a bit lately about ebook readers. I started with an Amazon Kindle several years ago. Amazon has since introduced newer models and has dropped the price several times. Only a month ago, Amazon dropped the Kindle's price from $259 to $189 in response to the introduction of Barnes & Noble's new $140 WiFi-only Nook ebook reader. Today, Amazon announced a brand-new Kindle. The third-generation member of the Kindle family will sell in two versions: a 3G wireless version for $189 and a Wi-Fi-only version for $139. The new Kindle will ship on August 27. Details may...
DNA Casts Doubts on a 100-year-old Murder Case
100 years ago this month, Hawley Crippen was an American homeopathic physician who was arrested for the murder of his wife in London, England. His wife had disappeared and a dismembered body was found under the basement floor of their home Camden Road, Holloway, London. The body could not be identified. Of course, DNA did not exist 100 years ago. Crippen was arrested, convicted, and later hanged for murder at Pentonville Prison, London. The mild-mannered murderer became a national celebrity and his waxwork stands in Madame Tussauds to this day However, a recent DNA analysis of preserved body parts of...
