WebSite questions-"&nbsp"



After getting several Emails from board members and new customers from the
Internet worldwide asking about the many listings of "&nbsp" on our site, I
finally looked at my own WebSite through the AOL browser and saw the "&nbsp"
listings everywhere and lack of graphics. This is a problem with the AOL
browser not the site. My website programming friends tell me that the "&nbsp"
is a string placed by the html program for item placement. It is not normally
seen in a browser cable of handling the graphical interfaces common to the
most sites. 

Unfortunately, heavy graphical sites such as ours require a better browser
such as Netcape to view things as they really are!  We took pains to add
graphics of all major products, and some minor one such as generator oil,
start and run switches, pedal felts, even Leslie replacement "O" Rings for
the Fast Motors.  Imagine trying to expain these parts or the new organs /
Leslie's without pictures?  

I wrote the text specifically for the HAMMOND owner, enthusiast, historian or
new tech, so beware... our site is not for the meek!  For the record, we were
not interested in making this simply a new-product glitz site. Most of the
text even on new items (such as the 122 / 147 Leslie section) pertains to
original equipment and answers many WHY questions. (my own favorite picture
is the Motion Sound KBR-3D keyboard amp, which was a factory picture that
just came out great!)

Thanks again to Tony and others who wrote about the weird text listings. We
added a link to Netscape for all to grab the newest Netscape 3.0 or 2.01 Gold
browsers for free.
