I don't really want to post a blog every time a new banner is available on the website, but there's more to this update than just a new banner...

ok, ok; you got me. There really is nothing more than a new banner in this update, but it's a jQuery rotating banner though! This little puppy is now the main banner on the top of the page and it's a doozie of a feature. It's pretty self-explanitory, hardly even worth mentioning if you ask me. A banner that rotates. Write a book about it, right?

So what's next you ask?... well I made the mail headers sortable for visitors. Now visitors that login and check their messages from the Mail web application on the website can sort the messages by date, subject, read/unread, and alphabetically by the sender or receiver depending on what mailbox you're looking in (inbox or outbox).

One more thing...

I also setup development of the delete feature for some of the elements on the site. For instance now when visitors choose to hide the Dock on the website then the Dock will be hidden on every page that is visited afterwards until the visitor decides to show the Dock (at which point it will remain visible). This feature is also setup similarly for tutorial articles; so when a visitor choses to remove the tutorial from the results of a page then the tutorial that was chosen to be "deleted" will not appear on any of the pages anymore. I made this development so that visitors could go through the tutorials on the site and once they've finished one they can choose to remove it from their tutorial list. The information is stored in a web cookie, so users do not need to be logged in to remove tutorials from the list.

I fixed a lot of other things on the site that became broken after adding the new developments. That's usually the case: when a new feature is added it breaks 10 features that were already developed. So you get the new feature to work and then you spend a lot of time going back and fixing everything else to work with the new developments.
