Major browsers fix. IE 6 support dropped



MARCILAN Supported Browsers


I was informed that the pathology page has a large gap when it is displayed. This didn’t make sense at all. I do most of my development and testing on Firefox 3 and it seems that I forget sometimes that browsers handle padding and margins in CSS differently. Well, this problem is now fixed and pages should render correctly on Safari, Chrome and IE7. However, I found out that IE6 to be notorious and many elements didn’t work. Since this browser is already old and known to cause problems to begin with, I decided to drop the support for it all together. If you are using Internet Explorer 6 please update to version 7 or use a modern browser like Firefox.

Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome, Odontoma and Osteoma


I decided to write posts for the progress I am making everyday. This will remind me of what is still needed to be done and keep me motivated when I see the number of pages start to add up. I am expecting no one probably will read this. But I like to write and I can’t help it.

So what’s new? 3 diseases all at once. Basal cell nevus syndrome, odontoma, and osteoma. However, it seems that slide note plugin is having trouble when the page words pass certain number in a page. I am working with the developer to get this fixed so I’ll wait and see. Till then Basal cell page is inoperable.

Ameloblastoma, KCOT and more updates


I just finished adding [cref keratocystic-odontogenic-tumor] page. [cref ameloblastoma] has been added too. Only single case for KCOT was added. More cases will be added today. Ameloblastoma page need last two cases’ reports written. Since I am planning to make updates on daily basis, it is good idea to inform you with what has been updated.

In the Differential Diagnosis (DDX) in disease page, I added synaptic links. So now it is possible to click on a disease from differential to go directly to that disease page to know more about it. There are few links now and I will keep updating the links from time to time.

I added slight visual cue (bold and light blue color) to the available links so you can tell which links are available.
