Problem solved

by Jerry on October 15, 2009

Over the past few days I’ve received a few messages stating that some readers could not view the actual post content on this site.  It took a bit, but it boiled down to an error in Internet Explorer that caused that section of the pages to load improperly. (We’re not getting in to how stupid a parse-error this was, mind you.)

While browsers such as Firefox and Safari simply ignored the issue and displayed the pages properly, Internet Explorer, for some obtuse reason known only to the engineers at Microsoft, decided to render the glitch as a comment instead.  Why it happened is not relevant.  What IS relevant is that it has been repaired and everyone should be able to view posts normally now.

If you’re having an issue, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can fix the issue.

Thanks!

Peace.  I’m out.

Out with the new, in with the True

October 7, 2009 Personal Ramblings

I mentioned in an earlier post that I was completely disenchanted with the new theme I designed for Cooking, by the seat of my Pants!  After just a few weeks of looking at This:

I had determined that it simply wasn’t going to work for this blog, no matter what I did.  I couldn’t stand it.  So yesterday I unveiled the New-New cbsop.  The current design (which, if you’re reading …

What was I thinking? A call for help.

October 3, 2009 Personal Ramblings

Have you ever worked your tail off on something for weeks, really pouring your heart, soul and creative juices into a project just to come back to it a few weeks later and say:

What the hell was I thinking?

Yeah.  That’s me right now.

When I decided to update the look and feel of Cooking, by the seat of my Pants! last month, I was awestruck by the theme …

One Hundred Thousand and Counting!

November 3, 2008 Personal Ramblings

October was a banner month for this little slice of the Internet tht I call CbsoP.  last month I topped the 100,000 unique visitor mark, with nearly 200,000 pageviews!  it’s really something special, especially since this blog is not yet two years old.

So to all of you who have topped by over the course of my ramblings, Thank You!  To my regular readers, thanks as well.  Without you this …

What are your thoughts?

October 21, 2008 Personal Ramblings

halloween is just around the corner, and I’ve got a slew of recipes coming for that over the next few days, but that leaves us dead in the middle of the Holiday season, a topic I covered pretty thoroughly last year.  What’s a blogger to do?

“Why,” I said to myself, “I’ll ask my readers if there are things that they would like to see!”

And it sounded like a …

Wow

November 13, 2007 Personal Ramblings

OK, that was scary.  I apologize if there were a few minutes when the site was unavailable.  Upgrading will do that sometimes.  As far as I can tell, most of the site is working properly now.  I’ll be working to get the rest back up ASAP.  If you spot an issue, please contact me at jerry (at) cookingbytheseatofmypants (D0t) com…

The ongoing saga of…

March 25, 2007 Personal Ramblings

If you’re a regular visitor you’ve probably already noticed that I’ve shaken the look of the place up a bit again. There shouldn’t be any surprise in that, since I’d already said I was compelled to do so in an earlier post.

As usual, I waxed impatient and just had to get this template up today, so expect to see some shifting around of topics, menus and a bit …

Blast You WellFed! (Or is that “Blast Me!”)

March 19, 2007 Personal Ramblings

I must have been living under a rock for the past four months.

When I originally redesigned this blog (to coincide with the switch to our very own happy little domain name), one of my primary reasons for doing so was that, at the time it went live, it bore a remarkable resemblance to Simply Recipes. (As a very real matter of point, it was inspired by it.)

I …

Finally!

March 8, 2007 Personal Ramblings

I’m sure you noticed pretty quickly, but just to make it very plain (in a redundant and unnecessary kind of way), I’ve got the new site up and running, and am now operating under my own happy little domain name… (there go my search engine rankings, <groan>!)

Please take a moment to let me know what you think about the new digs, I’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback so …
