RE: Spam:****, Re: alternativephotography.com and cyanotype
As usual Katherine you are missing the point. If you can view a site with one browser and not another on the same computer, then the browser that doesn't work has a configuration option that prevents the web site from being viewed. IOW, the software isn't broken just not configured equally (in a rough sense) to the browser that does work. -----Original Message----- From: Katharine Thayer [mailto:kthayer@pacifier.com] Sent: Friday, September 01, 2006 10:26 PM To: alt-photo-process-l@usask.ca Subject: Re: Spam:****, Re: alternativephotography.com and cyanotype Well, I hate to disagree with such confident certainty, but the fact is that before I changed computers and browser, I could not access that site with the browser that was on my computer, and if there was something I really wanted to see on the site, I had to start up a browser I didn't like and didn't care to use as a rule, (it was very slow and took forever to open and close and download things, in comparison to the older browser I ordinarily used) in order to access the site. This was inconvenient at best and exasperating at less than best. With the computer I have now and the browser I have now, the site is easily accessible. So it doesn't make sense to me to say that the hardware or software doesn't have anything to do with it. Besides, if software didn't matter, why would you get those messages one sometimes gets that say "this site is best viewed with Microsoft Explorer v. xyz" or whatever the site is optimized for.
