Let me apologize. I didn't mean to chastise you specifically. That is why I
removed the names from the email. And I also did jump in late to the
thread, I was under the impression that the big block of code was what
someone else had suggested as a solution to an OP's question. I didn't
realize it was your code you were trying to ask the list about.

> Just so you know. Your site does not work on a MAC.

It actually does work on a Mac, just not in Safari ;-)

I'm aware of this, and unfortunately, it's a defunct JavaScript library
that is causing the issue. The library to do those fancy windows is all
written in German and then minified, so debugging it is just a nightmare I
don't have the time or care to dig into for a browser that is 4% of the
market ( http://marketshare.hitslink.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qprid=0
)

> Definitely not on Safari and your menus on Firefox (but some things work
on Firefox)

All of it should work in Firefox. I use Firefox on Ubuntu and XP (as well
as IE6, IE7 and IE8)
What doesn't work in Firefox on the Mac?

> Not sure if your are particular to PC or LINUX.

Yes, I am. I bought a Dell Mini9 and hackintoshed it since several
friends/fanboys of mine kept extolling the virtues of the mighty OSX. I
really WANTED to like OSX. But aside from looking pretty, I found it too
dumbed down for me. I like more control over my OS, and when I press the
'DEL' button on a file, well, it damn well should 'DELete'. ;-)

As am I.

Understood and empathize.

I believe so. It loads and does a few things. Not sure how much is
completed or not to say what it's supposed to do or not do...

> Also, I saw some of the things you worked on. Nice work.

Thank you.

> (I see your serious about your recruiter comment now)

Yes. They bug the shit out of me.

> Do you have a suggestion where I can get PHP/MySQL certified?

I've never been to one, but Zend offers courses that may be worth checking
into.

I find the php.net site to be the absolute best source of examples and
information.
