Please click if you don't use IE..
Opera, Safari, and Firefox (Camino Too) users I welcome your input. Is my site broken ? Click on the T. The database is empty except for bands that start with the letter T. I find the UI strange. And I can't think of a good way to fix it. Any suggestions?

Should I bother to fix it to work with IE? I don't really want to.

And the blue links will get un-ugly soon.

I used Ajax (xmlhttprequest) so don't use the back button. Think of it as a desktop application running in your browser.

Same thing happens in IE. So, I might need to fix that. Not sure how to.

5. Check Data/Syntax for Script "//"
Edited on Mon May-16-05 06:51 AM by REP
May be as simple as typo in the script or you've got it pointed the wrong way.

Nothing happens when I click on the T. I do not have cookies enabled and I have it set to only open requested popups.

8. The problem is that you use ActiveX
I'm using Opera and I have ActiveX disabled, because it's the biggest security hazard around.

From your source:

try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (E) {
xmlhttp = false;


It's better to use either Javascript or - best of all - use normal <a href="page_a">a</a> etc. references
