CSRA
Square Dance Federation Augusta, Ga

Carolina. Lists clubs and events within a 50 mile radius of
Augusta Georgia.
E-mailed Ring Master on 12/12, the same day he made this and listing id=219 active. No reply. Problem - Nav Bar links show ID=219 which is another listing also made active on 12/12. Since the web site has listing Id=219 and has the Links for id=219, it's obvious the id=163 listing (which is their old listing) is redundant and needs to be deleted. Having the id=163 listing active caused web ring travelers to get short circuited. Try using the Next link to see what this means.

E-mail sent 11/8 but no reply. 11/30 e-mailed many board members. Problem - Next 5 link has a space between id= and 113 so link fails. 12/12 - 12/14 had some e-mail exchanges with different people who might be able to fix the web site. on 12/14 I sent steps to get new Navigation Bar code.

Website manager = Dennis Webmaster@dmcbride.com

Dancing - The Art Of Making Friends
Web Site Hosting for the Square Dance World.
Special hosting for Square Dance Callers, Cuers, Square Dance
Organization and clubs.
E-mail sent 10/23, 11/7, 11/8 with some replies but refuses to correct the problem. Problem- Links need Target because he uses Frames and the Next or Prev site opens but in his middle frame. He replied and says he is using teh code he got from the web ring and that not opening other web sites in his middle frame is how he has it designed. He refuses to add target="_top" to the links. He believes the other web sites should add code to cause themselves to open in their own window. Even if this could be done (I believe it can not), the web masters of all the otehr web sites (random, hub, neighbors, etc) should have to compensate for this web masters mistake. 11/8 The Ring Master has been informed but he thought the script for the SSNB was being used so the web master could not edit the links. The Ring Master has been informed that the script for the SSNB is NOT being used. HTML links are being used so the web master has full ability to fix the problem. 11/8 e-mail to Web Ring Tech Support - technician believes this listing had not been migrated from Yahoo to the new web ring. So where did Dennis get the bad HTML links?

E-mail sent 11/7 to Ring Master. Problem - Web Ring links are hard to find. Users have to guess and hopefully click the "Square Dancing" link to get to the page with the Web Ring Links. Dennis, web master of ID=21 identified this problem yet he will not fix the problems on his own web site. The Ring Master was asked to change the URL in the listing t the page with the Web Ring links (http://www.supremeaudio.com/cgi-bin/lib/shop-wrapper.pl?page=squares&shop=supreme2&cart=) but he did not reply nor did he change the URL.

Problem - No replies to e-mails and this web site appears abandoned as it is not being updated. It is so outdated, it is of no use and should be removed from the ring.
