Lottery Post Site Update (Feb. 25, 2009)Previous TopicNext Topic

A quick follow-up on some additional bug fixes just posted.  In addition to the fixed bug posted previously this evening, I have just finished uploading another set of fixes.  (It is common after a big release like last night to find a few straggling bugs when the code is put into production.)

• The login page no longer warns about non-secure content
• Certain pages contained an extra HTML element that was not visible to users but could throw a browser warning message
• Locked topic threads once again state "locked" (this was missing for the past 24 hours)
• All pages are now capable of displaying a warning message if JavaScript is disabled

Also, just wanted to say "THANKS!" to those who have posted nice comments today.  They are much-appreciated!

...very much appreciated Todd - Thanks.

Wanted to post one more follow-up on this thread.

I have hopefully fixed the bug that many IUE users were seeing — the page would occasionally throw a severe JavaScript error in IE and then show a blank page, forcing you to click Back, then Refresh.  Hopefully it has been eliminated.

A few other fixes were implemented:

• Fixed the state lottery results pages, which would show blank jackpots in IE6
• Added Share/Bookmark button to news stories, allowing instant sharing of news stories to practically every major social network site
• Fixed some png-style images in IE6 to include the correct transparent background
• Miscellaneous minor improvements in efficiency/performance.

I have notice some of the new changes.  Awesome, Thank You for all

effort that u have put into LP.  I think its a great site, I have been

spreading the word around MICHIGAN.  You should b very proud of

yourself.

Seems as though your updates are working well Todd, It has also cleared up what I had pm'd you about earlier with other issues. Thanks for all the dedication and time.....!       

@charmed7:  Thank you very much for the word-of-mouth!  Since Lottery Post does not have an advertisement budget to speak of, that kind of "advertising" is so important and appreciated.

@MADDOG10:  Awesome, I'm glad to hear it helped.  Sorry about the length of time where it was a little rough.  I am trying to balance a number of technologies in each page, and it can be a very hairy thing to get it "just right".
