An urgent but not life-or-death question. I went to
http://rolexsydneyhobart.com/yacht_tracker.asp?key=522 to check the race progress but the yacht tracker downloaded but doesn't run. Right clicking shows it is using gnash. Where do I start looking?
I am using F8, gnash-0.8.2.3.fc8 and firefox 2.0.0.10. The race finishes on Sunday morning, hence the urgency :). If someone can point me in the right direction I'll start chasing it tomorrow. If someone could verify that gnash works on this site, that would be a start. This site worked with flash for last year's race, so I could always swap over to that.
Seasons greetings
Well, some joy during the night. I refreshed the page late last night and the plot of yachts is showing. But this morning it has not refreshed itself, the refresh plot button doesn't seem to work, nor do the the zoom, favourites etc seem to work. Firefox was set to block popups, so have enabled that for this site. I'll wait till after breakfast and if no response by then I'll refresh the page again.
Well...it seems nearly impossible to test this site from Taiwan. It is painfully, painfully slow. It took nearly 5 minutes to load that page in both FF on Linux and IE7 on Vista. Updates are equally sluggish. Actually, sluggish would be fast compared to that site.
