For the last six years, I've been posting Maplewood Township Committee agendas here on MOL. I started doing this back when there was no township website available. For the last several months, the official township website has been up and running, with meeting agendas, ordinance text, announcements and bulletins, etc. The site is updated regularly, and additional items are being added all the time. Township Committee meetings are the first and third Tuesday of every month. Meeting agendas are usually posted there on the Friday before the regular meeting. The official site is at http://www.twp.maplewood.nj.us From now on, please bookmark and refer to the township website for "Official Maplewood" meeting agendas, ordinances, bulletins, and news. Thanks Jerry Ryan |

Must be the browser you're using - looks ok on IE6 and Netscape 6. But by viewing the code, I'm not surprised that some browsers may have issues with it - I see a lot of unnecessary characters in it. Just try another browser. |

I don't see anything strange about the code. What is it you see? |

I'm seeing a lot of instances like this: " /> Well, the code I tried to show here doesn't show up cause it converts it to html, just a lot of unnecessary forward slashes, especially in the break tags. Using { in image names and links is kind of odd too. A couple of the images didn't have file name extensions at the end of them. I'm only speculating - they are minor coding glitches that normally wouldn't affect anything, but sometimes older browsers will interpret these things incorrectly. Galileo - what browser are you using? (And there isn't any snow at Town Hall anymore.) |

Ok, I had a slightly older version of Netscape on another machine - my one speculation was correct. The image that didn't have a file extension showed up as a broken image. The main content and the right content were overlapping. But I don't have time to look into this, could be a table spacing issue as well. |

That's all perfectly legal HTML and XHTML. I'd be more surprised if a page displayed correctly in Netscape 4 than to have a problem. |

the " />" is used for tags that don't have corresponding closing tags, such as <br>, in order to be more XML-compatible. |

In fact it's fine on current versions of Netscape, but not version 4 (which always stunk). Very few people still use this awful program and those who do should get a modern browser. Thanks Jerry. |
