    3. The Kent OPC site works perfectly normally for me with Firefox - no need to right click on links. My version of Firefox is uptodate - perhaps old versions have problems? Thanks to all the OPC workers - your efforts are much appreciated. Best wishes to all listers, Robert >>> Hello, again, Trish, I just received my digest version of the Kent Rootsweb mailing list and found your messages. Are you using Firefox? In Firefox you have to right click your mouse any one of the links and then select "open in new window" or "open in new tab". Then the links will work with no problem...... <<<<

    3. Hi Robert, Thank you for your email. I wanted to contact Susan Young on another matter, and wasn't querying a problem with the site - when I clicked onto the Contact Us link nothing happened though. However, when Susan Young (County Administrator) contacted me, she explained that Chrome (which is what we use) isn't compatible with their website, which is why I couldn't get through to her. I've pasted Susan's email here in case anyone else experiences problems in the future though - "Are you using Firefox? In Firefox you have to right click your mouse any one of the links and then select "open in new window" or "open in new tab". Then the links will work with no problem. This seems to apply to the links in the main menu bar at the top of the page, as well. Our pages are (as they are being updated and redeveloped) coded and validated with the W3 validator, it's just that Firefox doesn't seem to want to acknowledge the same. There is also the option of installing an add-on available for Firefox that allows viewing of a website as if it had been opened in Internet Explorer. If you are using Chrome, that is an entirely different story. Chrome only acknowledges HTML 5.0 and higher. We are coded in HTML 4.1 transitional with no intentions of going to 5 as eventually we will be going back into a content management system. I haven't tested in any current version of Opera and have no access to a Mac. But, I have heard from some Mac users with some Safari browsers that the site is working fine."
