    Default Tread Lightly Updates



    I wanted a thread for providing Tread Lightly updates to the forum.

    Tread Lightly has just released a new awareness program

    Scott, couple things I noticed that can be passed on as you see fit.

    First, page 24 (the scenarios page) does not work. I can get through the description, but when I try to click on the individual scenarios, I get nothing.

    Second, page 27 will not load.

    Finally, when I follow the "resources" link at the bottom....the list of links that opens in the pop up window are screwy. Several of the [text] links are on top of each other.

    All of these are present when running firefox. I cannot view the site in IE for some reason. As soon as I either click the link, or paste the address into address bar (of IE), it closes the window. Not sure what that is all about.......

    Anyway, it is nice to see them continue to reach out to the public....

    That's strange. I'm using IE but have the McAffee sofware. I used to have Norton but ran into problems every once and a while. With the McAffee haven't had any issues.

    I had the same problem and it is because the window opens as a pop up, if you have any pop up blocking software it will be closed before it has chance to do anything.

    Most pop up blocking software will allow the window to open if you are holding CTRL when you click on the link.

    Thanks for the "ctrl" button info. It works.

    OK, there must be some old popup blocking software running on my computer. With Norton enabled....it isn't going to load. With Norton disabled, the <<ctrl>> + clicking on the link works.

    It appears that 2 of the 3 problems I had were associated with Firefox. But when I click on the "resources" link, the "text on top of text" problem is still there....but the problem is in a different area of the screen.....

    I am seeing the text on text problem in the resource window in IE too. I use a larger than normal font and it has caused problems like this in the past.
