GUE-UK website and newsletter launch

*Rich Walker* · April 4th, 2008, 11:37 AM

Hi All,

As those of you who came to see us at LIDS will know, GUE-UK has launched a website at GUE-UK

Here we will be keeping you up to date with the GUE diving activity going on around the country.

In addition to the website, our quarterly newsletter is now ready for publication. To sign up, go to GUE-UK and register your details. The first edition is going to be sent out on Sunday, so get your names down!

Best wishes,

Rich

Nice site

I did not find any general/web admin contact info so I post this here: the local groups / dir-uk link is not working (OsX & safari3, firefox2, opera9). Clicked the whole site through and everything else works beautifully.

Rich,

There seems to be a problem with the website as viewed on IE7 in that the individual page headings (eg "Welcome to GUE-UK", "LIDS 2008", etc) sit above the "UK" of the main title, which seems to be structured as:

"Research,
Conservation and
Exploration in the
UK"

I can send you a pic if you want?

I.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I will look into the bugs.

Why is it always IE?

Rich

EDIT: The DIR-UK page is fixed

I have many times been tempted to put a script totally blocking IE and telling to use something else on pages I built

PHP Code:

  <?php

   if (eregi("MSIE",getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT")) ||

       eregi("Internet Explorer",getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT"))) {

    Header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com/reject.html");

    exit;

   }

?>
