Hello mr/mz bite.

I was trying to read your Edinburgh section, however the html select list used to jump between locations uses a javascript onChange event handler, and as Edinburgh is the default category we cannot go there as we are not changing the selected element. Perhaps this is just a firefox issue (unlikely) however a form submit button or starting with a void select element such as 'Select a Location' would make it work.

I cant believe you managed to get Google Ads working on the site before the navigation!!

Good Luck!

PS. Thank you for contributing to Hidden Glasgow with such passion. ::):

the blink only appears in FireFox, they cannot get rid of it, not even in the script anymore when checked.

try this:

Find the line - <h2 align="center"><a href="reviews.html"><blink>CLICK HERE TO READ REVIEWS </a></h2></div>

take out the '<blink>' and hopefully that should work. Unless the blink is wanted of course :wink:

if your web designer is telling you things like that, take everything they say with a pinch of salt
