Nice to see the new Logo, but where are links to Forum, Aircraft, etc ?

Right there under the MAIW logo where it says Forum, Aircraft,etc.

I don't have it either since the logo was changed. I have to scroll to the bottom of the page and select "about us" then hit the forum tab on that page.!?

I know where they should be, but I don't have any link under logo.
All three system I use have IE 6.0 or IE 7.
Notice there is no problem uusing FF.

I too use FF and there is no problem. I checked with IE8 and again there is no problem so it seems that Mike is using technology too advanced for IE6/7, or at least MS never bothered making IE fully compatible with the official HTML standards until IE8.

At home using FF I have no problems, but here at werk I can't see the buttons using IE6 (proven technology and all that).

Earlier versions of IE (and to a much lesser extent FF) were never compliant with HTML standards.

The weird things is that those links are part of the original design of the site. At quick glance, it doesn't look like Mike changed the links at all.

I got IE 7, and no longer have the forums link either.

I didn't change the HTML code for those mouseover buttons. What I did change was the size of the new logo. It's slightly larger than the old one. It might have accidentally hidden those buttons for some IE users.

I have been meaning to move those buttons around a bit to a better location, just haven't had the time to play with it yet. I still have IE7 installed on my laptop so I will be sure to test it out on both IE and FF browsers.

when the page first loaded up the links for the other stuff was there and then the banner loads and hides them.
I am using IE7 btw.

I think that what helps is that in FF the links are to the left hand side whilst in IE8 they are in the middle.
Maybe its a simple case of forcing them to align to the left and that will solve the issue.

Really!? I'm getting a Script Error from my IE8 ('menuitem1' is undefined). I'm getting this error each time I put my cursor on any of the four Tabs.

Works fine for me with IE8 and Safari.

I have just loaded up IE8 and it works for me no problem. I do get a little yellow triangle which when double clicked on this lists all 4 tabs as undefined like you mentioned, but they still work.
This leads me to believe that its some setting that you have switched on or off.
My internet security setting tab is set to medium-high, privacy set to medium. Javascript is automatically set on with security set to medium-high.

Is that how yours are set?
