Bug Fix and Cross-Browser Philosophy

For some reason, when we updated the tool bars in the system (removing java applets), we left the tool bar code out of a table in two components (Facilities Reservation and Simple Inventory Management).  In IE the main pages in those two components looked fine but in FireFox,Seamonkey,Netscape, and other Mozilla based browsers, the grids and other info were pushed to the bottom of the page and you had to scroll down to find it.  The non-microsoft browsers were actually showing the components in the correct way -- the toolbar code was out of the table which rendered it at the top of the screen with a huge gap between it and the grids.  Since IE has a tendency to ignore some HTML, it looked right, but wasn't right (in the sense of true HTML rendering vs looking a the output of a page).  So the Mozilla siblings were right but looked wrong and IE was wrong but looked right.  This is starting to sound like a philosophy class so to summarize and clarify - the pages now look the same in all browsers.   The bug is fixed.

In other news, our new office build out is going well.  More news on that soon.

Bug Fix

Small bug fix:  The set priority feature of the details page wasn't working in Mozilla based browsers.  It is now fixed - there was a typo in the code that Mozilla was catching but Internet Explorer was ignoring (which is why it was still working in IE).  Thanks to Jim Wagner, the technology coordinator at Arcadia Valley R-II School District in Missouri for pointing out the error.  They use the SeaMonkey version of Mozilla (a sibling of Firefox).
