Hey Dave! Strange happenings?

Westbrook, ME(Zone 5a)

I went to check out the new seeds that 'Mainiac' has listed. I clicked on the more info button for the monkey flower & it switched me to your sweet pea listing. It this weird or what?? Then clicking on the common name link it switched me over to some one else's list.

Firstly, the "More Info" links works fine for me, so I can't replicate this problem.

Secondly, there is a problem with the common name link. Here's why: Mainiac is entering his/her information incorrectly. When you enter a URL in for more information, it must begin with a http://, otherwise, it will break the link or send you someplace incorrect.

Mainiac has entered the wrong URL in there, causing you to go to someone else's list on the same site.

Huh... well ... when I click the more info link to the monkey flower it goes to the Monkey flower listing with the "more info" = 26 (the 26# is a green link). I click on the 26 and it show's your Sweet pea listing (Dave has Sweet peas ((the ones that you want to keep for yourself)). Kinda of strange ~ Is it just me?

Not just you - I can replicate it now.

In the "More Information" URL field when he added the seed entry, he entered in:

/moreinfo/26.html

which is my sweet pea entry. I don't know why he's pointing people to the wrong entry, but he is...

Shrug.

Ohhh! Ok ~ glad to know it's not me. Maybe Mainiac just wants to trade away your sweet peas for you! ;-)

Hmmm someone fixed that problem, I can't replicate it.

It depends on how your browser interprets the URL. I should just go ahead and make it so that it forces you to enter in a 'http://' in every URL in that field.

That's later. Today I'm covered up in getting our new server up and online.

This server is much faster. I like it!
