Site Update

Posted on

Hey Guys,

I will be updating the site over the next 2-3 days. The site has so much content so its a lengthy procedure and I need to run a lot of tests to ensure everything is working fine. If you notice dead links/pages or parts of the site that do not display correctly don’t worry. It is all part of the update procedure.

Just a few notes on the new design:

1. If you still use Internet Explorer 6 the site may look a little strange to you. This is because we no longer support Internet Explorer 6 (we do support every version of IE higher than that) ie6 was released almost 10 years ago. It is very old browser technology and it just doesn’t work well with new website design techniques. Most site designers either compromise on a sites quality for ie6 or spend hours developing work-arounds to make a site look right in ie6.

Our site statistics show only 5% of users still use ie6 so if you’re on of them upgrade to the latest version of internet explorer or preferably upgrade to Firefox or Google Chrome.

By the way if you’re an ie6 user many websites including YouTube and Facebook are planning to stop supporting ie6 in the next year. So it’s not only us.

2. We have some new sections! One of the most popular pages on this site is the Forex Clock. This has been moved to the new Forex Tools section. It was formerly placed in the Forex Plus section. So if you’re looking for the clock look for it in the Tools tab.

3. shift+refresh if the site looks strange it may simply be because your browser cache is storing old information. If you click your browsers refresh icon whilst holding down the shift key it basically tells your browser to completely refresh the site. So remember to do this if the page looks weird

Ok that’s about it. I am going to go upload the new site design files. You should see the first of the changes over the next few hours.
