A pu that got me into trouble

If you're a regular visitor to the Well House Consultants web site, you may have noticed subtle changes over the last couple of days; the "Version 7" web site that we introduced at the new year wasn't up to the standard we had hoped and rather than making incremental changes, I've swept new profiles through in the background. Actually, it's been a good proof of the techniques we use that I've been able to do so much, and so fast.

I've also have a good proof / confirmation that I should take frequent backups while I work. In a tired moment yesterday evening, a put when I should have done a get during an FTP transfer meant that I overwrote my Version 8 pivotal templates with the old Version 7 ones that I'm working so hard to replace.

Anyway - an hour or two of reworking had me up and running again (and, yes, I HAVE backups this time) and the site's there for you to enjoy. Printing is improved. Navigation is improved. Resizing the window is much improved. And it looks good too. Odd "holes" cropping up - with the freedom for the width to vary, some pages that looked great narrow look less great when wide ... but I'm sure I'll get to most of those and fix them as I spot them.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
