Thanks for that Doc. I checked my add ons and plug-ins in the FF browser on my laptop, some needed updating (done). Turned out to be the browser spell checker extension which had been turned off, must have been done automatically as I certainly have not touched it. It was flagged as update available...

Trust Cally to bugger the theory up, mind you she is using one of them apple things I believe

Interesting Doc, same machine different browser (Chrome), works O.K. Will have a poke around in my Firefox settings and see if there is anything obvious. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit in Firefox on a different machine and the spell checker works here OK as ...

badly speld word irisponsible Same string does not highlight as anything wrong? spell.JPG Sorry about the small attachment, first time I have done it this way. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: It was working for me earlier in the week and can't s...

Thanks for that Jamie, I am currently looking for Barlick lads from the Second World War and later. If you are new to the site you will have missed all Thomo's previous postings about his findings on the First World War casualties that we believe are missing from our memorial. All of this research i...

Earlier in the week, typo's were being highlighted by the spellchecker, not now. Have you turned the facility off Doc or am I doing something wrong? Can't see anything in my control panel or in the edit box that will tun it on or off either.

To compliment The Swing Commanders, we also have our good friends Peter and Jeff, "Company B" who will be spinning the discs on the night. Swing, Lindy, Waltz, Balboa, Foxtrot, Stroll, whatever takes your fancy. They are awfully nice chaps and will take requests for you favourite tunes if ...

Same version of Firefox here Tiz and just noticed that now you have mentioned it. Like you I usally have quite few tabs open as I go down the list of new posts and "middle button" all "last posts" to open in new tab. I open them in order but its a bit like Forest Gump's box of ch...

A bit more about why we have the Memorial Gardens in the first place. This is related from what my dad told me, it all makes sense when you think about it. Millions of young men had been put through the mincer of the Western Front, the carnage of the event was unbelievable and as we know entire comm...

Whyperion - Yes.

Belle - the report was from 1983!

Wendy, I cant see your pictures either.

I thought I had read in BET recently, that the area had been power washed to remove the inevitable build up of algea on the steps and surrounding paving. It was quite slippy underfoot when wet, I noticed this shortly after the Remembrance Service. I don't think it is too bad now but will check again...

The Cenotaph was "Parked" in its current location because that particular corner of land had no defined use when the cenotaph was moved for very good reasons from Letcliffe. Not strictly true Ken, the memorial is sited where it is by design and not simply "parked" on any bit of ...

It was yesterday actually but wat attracted my attention was a report in the BET from 1983 showing Stanley in a sharp suit taking up his new post at Pendle Heritage Centre. I came across the report while I was researching the year for moving the war memorial to it's present site. Findings of which w...

The entrance to the site is on Bank Street however you are correct in that the existing building is oriented at right angles. If houses are built the same and I suppose they would have to be to fit on the plot they will be an extension of Hill Street.

Has anyone received the email I sent out, I'm getting hundreds of Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender I'm just checking that I sent it correctly in the first place and that the Returns aren't my fault. If I did then it looks like a lot of the old members have either moved or changed t...

Doc, I assume that if you can eventualy rejig the archive site with a later SQL index point to get the data nearer to the 21st Jan the bots will only have to re-index the extra data they find won't they?

I hope that's the case anyway.

Hi Doc, just wondering what the allowable extensions are for attachments? FAQ says ask the admin.

You just need this bit Bodge

inserted between the youtube brackets where the curser is when you click the link.

I think a decision was made fairly early in the war not to jam the German broadcasts at it was thought they were doing themselves more harm than good. It was technically feasible to block the signals but time better spent on more important things like radar. Lot's of the existing radio amateurs in t...

It's a bit more inviting this way Brad and no need to go to the YouTube site, just play in window, just like FB. The one you have edited 3 times looks to have a bit too much info in the string - ditch the end bit of text I think.. Well that's one way of doing it. If it wont bend to your will, kill i...

Another question has been triggered. Ian, I seem to remember a mate of my dad's who was a Ham in the early days explaining the Heavyside Layer (?) to me in 1944 and talking about bouncing signals off it. Have I got this right, is it the same thing as ionised auroral layers? I think we covered this ...
