- It seemed a bit out of the blue; no idea why it was offline... Did you notice anything which could have caused the server to be offline?
When the site is down I sometimes get my hopes up sometimes that maybe something is getting fixed or new feature was being added. ^^
I haven't noticed any of the most simple and important bugs being fixed yet. I guess this was just a normal server crash, just it's strange that it was down for longer than the usual few seconds?
The Firefox mobile view layout not having a username textbox on the intro page is ridiculously easy to fix and would take literally less than 60 seconds. Fixing it completely is as simple as adding the following line to the style sheet:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px){.motto{float:none;}}
I find it hard to understand... :/February 17, 2015 at 5:43am - @mog86uk I re-reported three of the JCJP issues to @beeant regarding the profile/statistics page "not loading", the small text size answers in the JCJP mobile browser issue, and the missing username field issues.February 17, 2015 at 6:25am
- @mog86uk As for the 30-minute server downtime, I was posting messages to @beeant about ten minutes before it happened. I believe I was doing one Readings quiz as well.February 17, 2015 at 6:29am
- @kekkou With JCJP in mobile view, do the icon you click to show/hide the menus work in Safari?
They work in Chrome, Opera and probably Safari. They don't work in Firefox and IE11.
I think I noticed what is causing this, but I'm not sure. It looks like it's set up to only use "-webkit-transform" (which is needed by Chrome, Opera and Safari). Firefox and IE can't use "-webkit" functions... Firefox needs "-moz-transfom" and IE needs "-ms-transform".
Other sections of the site work fine all three browsers only because normally all three versions of each function are listed. However these icons to show/hide the menus seem to have forgotten to include the Firefox and IE versions.
I could be completely wrong though, especially if this doesn't actually work in Safari either. ^^February 17, 2015 at 10:08am - With JCJP in mobile view, DOES the icon you click to show/hide the menus work in Safari? *
(Why do I keep making so many mistakes recently? Can't just be because one of my hands are injured and I'm typing mostly with one hand...)February 17, 2015 at 10:10am - @mog86uk I noticed that problem as well a few days ago. :)February 17, 2015 at 10:17am
- Do you know whether those icons actually work in Safari? I can't test Safari at the moment as I don't have it installed. :/February 17, 2015 at 10:25am
- They work in Safari, as well as Chrome. Have you tried installing Safari through the Apple Software Update program for Windows? If you have Quicktime or iTunes, you should have an option to install Safari too. :)February 17, 2015 at 1:11pm
- I had Safari installed for a while, not long after the JCJP beta ended.
However, I had a lot of problems with Safari, with it crashing on me in weird ways making my whole computer freeze where I the only way to get out of the problem was to press the power button on my PC... Also I don't like having annoying things like QuickTime, iTunes, Apple Software Update, and all the other annoying Apple services constantly wanting to run in the background installed on my computer. But having Safari made it difficult not to avoid having these installed. :/
Also, the newest version that was made for Windows (5.1.7) is nearly 3 years old and is not getting updated anymore. I wouldn't use it as my normal web browser, only for testing website compatibility issues with it.
The times when Safari was working okay, it seemed like a reasonably good browser. Might have been a good browser if it was still being updated. But anyway, I uninstalled it ages ago to free up some space. I probably won't install it again unless I have an urgent need to test something specific... ^^February 17, 2015 at 1:36pm
