Subject: Making changes to parody authors index (again)

going to try and remove the "case sensative" issue once and for all. Maybe cleanup a few other things.

Do you have any idea why it doesn't work on my eMac? It switches from top to bottom but doesn't sort.

It's a browser function. Macinotsh browsers aren't always as compatible as the newer ones on Windows boxes. IE on the Mac for instance would certainly not work, since that's very non-compliant with the Xhtml specs. Safari might, but you need a current version.

The new changes, are made to be a little more inclusize or capitalization issues in parody author names. Unfortunately, if you have extra punctuation, the wrong name might appear as the name on your authors page (John A.. Barry). Easiest fix for that, is to have me remove the errant parody.
Hopefully more parodies will appear under some of the authors, who had issues with submitted parodies. If you spot duplicates under your name, make sure to send me a personal message with the URL (address) of the parody to be removed.

It doesn't work in Safari, even the most up-to-date version. Firefox displays it fine, though. By the way, what happened to the average averages for the votes at the bottom? :-\\

I removed them, since they screw up the table sorting.
It's odd that Safari doesn't handle the table sorting properly, since it passes the CSS2 acid test. Might be, because it's not strictly CSS2 stuff, but javascript and DOM as well. Does Google Maps work properly in Safari? If it doesn't, this probably won't either.

Google Maps works fine - there's even a widget for it, I think. But seeing as how Safari has maybe 3% of the browser market, I wouldn't lose sleep over it - the rest of the site works great! :)

I wasn't going to lose sleep over it (trust me!)
it's one of those "if it works, that's great, but if it doesn't work, oh well" type of functions. Those of us using the superior Firefox get it, >grin<
