ok, www.ihmsa.org is now running on a secure web server. the main pages are working, but still trying to get the forums working.

Ok, forums are now working on a secure connection.

BUT:

it may require you to log back on. and for some, it may require you to clear your cache in your web browser to properly work.

Dan,
Don't know if this is in your area but the two .docx files in the main page Forms folder are just jibberish when I tried to download them. All the .doc are OK.

I am going to fix that. I just need to format them for older versions of Word. the .docx format is not compatible with older versions. so I am going to downgrade them to work.

I am going to change all the files to Acrobat (PDF) files and get rid of this once and for all.

ok, they are now all PDF files. should have no compatibility issues now.

Dan,
Only problem now is .pdf files are not updateable by me when filling the match report for example. No tables in .pdf forms.
When the files are .doc I could download them then edit the tables embedded in the Word files.
I'm not sure you want to leave them as .pdf.
I would suggest making them all .doc which could then be downloaded then edited by anyone with a recent copy of MS-Word.
Fortunately I downloaded all the forms I needed when they were still .doc so I am good for a while.
I just had to update the IHMSA address in my version of the recap form.

Greg,

I have no idea why yours does not look the same! I checked it with 3 different web browsers, on a phone and in the Forums admin control panel and it shows up fine in all of them!

if you want, just PM me your IHMSA number and I can enter it for you!
