Microsoft has updated Windows Live Local – much nicer than the old VirtualEarth site. And they’ve updated a number of the overhead aerial photographs as well. Suggest you check it out, I just “wasted” an hour searching, zooming, scrolling, viewing… a lot of fun.

Scripts, WordPress & Other Sidebar Fun

Feb 28, 2006 | blog

Ok, I figured out what was causing my weird behavior in IE6 – though I’m not sure why it cropped up in that browser and not IE7 or Firefox.

Seems my StatCounter was causing the issue.  As soon as I moved the java script from the sidebar of the site to the main portion – the problem when away.  Oh well, you can’t figure them all out. 🙂

Anyway – the site should be working fine now in IE6, though I’ll have to wait a few days to see if my stats are working correctly!  Again, sorry for any confusion!
