OLC?

The calendar, country problem seems to be Internet Explorer specific to
me. Using IE, I notice I have calendar problems if I enter OLC via the
SSA site. More specifically, if I change to the day prior, I get
worldwide scoring. If I then filter for USA flights, I get the current
date, worldwide scoring.

If I use this link
http://www3.onlinecontest.org/olc-2..../olcscore.html the
calendar works properly.

It kind of looks like PHP sessionID's (or possibly cookies) are getting
crossed in the framed SSA OLC page and browser caching in Internet
Explorer. Don't have time to debug further at the moment and there are
other exceptions noted.

Firefox appears to handle it okay in the framed SSA page as I can't
duplicate the problem while using Firefox (on a Linux box).

Anyone having problems in Firefox on a Windoze box?

At least here in good old Europe the calender works.

Could it be that the problem arises from the fact that the calender
always assumes that you are in Europe, while you are 9 hours behind.
Is the date correct when you check in the morning and not in the evening?

Some of the problems will not be visible to a user or tester in Europe.

Yes, I'm sure that may be part of it. Perhaps a user profile set with
cookies and coupled to the login could address some of these issues?
Or some command line variables to help customize the view?

The OLC link in the USA, for example goes through the SSA website. If
they could add some options there so that a click on "scoring" would
automatically select United States, and a generic timezone for the US,
that may help.

One feature I find missing is the aboulity to display the one month
list of flights - especially nice if there a not yet many flights for
"today". Actually, an option to display the last week's worth of
flights would be very nice, as that would provide a reasonable snapshot
of recent activity.
