Check out the plans that SirStink has done for my website.

Mate I owe you one.

I only wanted some simple plans and elevations but this is what I have received.

Wow - easy to use and totally great!!

Doesn't work in my browser (Firefox). All I see is a big white box with "Planter Box" and a notice about downloading PDF Reader (which I already have).

Works OK with my Firefox.

Good job, Stinky

Hah! Yeah, I say that to someone at least once a week "well it works on my machine". Trouble is I still have to try and work out why it doesn't work on their machine.

I reckon it's got something to do with the way it's embedded in the page. Never seen a PDF come up like that before. I reckon you'd be better to just have a link to the PDF on the page. Or at least put a link to it at the top of the page as well for suckers like me who don't have the right plugin installed.

Well, it didn't work for my Firefox browser either, but the latest link does.

So what plugin am I missing out on?

Oh BTW Sir Stinkalot, great job there, very good instructions and drawings

[silentC]

I don't know. Theoretically it should work if you have Acrobat Reader installed. Maybe it's not registered correctly or something.

You need version 8 of adobe, I couldnt upload the file Stinky sent until I had updated.

Although Stinky has done a terrific job on the site in general, I have to agree with silent that it would be better if the pages were not actually embedded. I would then still have access to all the tools that I normally use in Adobe such as a magnifier, or fit to width etc.

But that is a relatively minor quibble on such a great job.

ps there is a picture on the "replacing a brick" page that will not load as I apparently don't have permission to view it.

Im still learning the ins and outs of the software, I cant see how else I could have a pdf file though

The picture in question doesnt have any permissions set, I look into it.

Thanks Bob for the feed back.

:Edit: I have had a look at the picture Bob and its just a plain old everyday Jpg, so I dont know why you cant see it?
