Database Cleanup Today

A few of our students (about 30) had extra copies of some facts in their workbooks. Each fact should only be in a workbook once.

These duplicates were caused by two old bugs which we fixed a while ago. We doubt if anyone will notice, but it's possible that some of our high-end, power users may notice that the number of facts listed on the trophy statistics page will have gone down a few facts.

Problems with Slow Networks

Some of our users with satellite networks or slow networks in remote locations were experiencing strange problems with HomeSchoolAdvantage. These problems were caused because your network providers were not actually displaying to you the web pages we were sending you. We have made a few changes to trick your network providers into actually displaying to you the web pages we have been sending you. The net result, those of you with satellite or otherwise slow networks should now have a better experience operating HomeSchoolAdvantage.

Please let us know whenever you have problems with HomeSchoolAdvantage. It was two users working closely with us that allowed us to figure out that some of your internet service providers were not actually displaying the web pages we were sending you. :-( Those who had this problem with us, likely experience bad behavior on many other websites as well.
