Level2 changes
In the last few weeks we've needed to implement some code changes to make us compliant with the LSE's rules on the access of Level2 data.

The following requirement is now in place:
You can only use 1 program on 1 computer to access Level2 on MoneyAM using a single username.

This means that you are able to view as many Level2 windows using any one particular browser, or program, that you wish, however you will not be able to use both Firefox and Internet Explorer at the same time (the same goes for using Quote Tracker or TradeSeeker at the same time as viewing it using a web browser)

If you find you're being logged off of MoneyAM's Level2 with the message 'you've logged on from another location' then check the above and make sure you're not running any other programs at the same time before reporting this as a bug.

See told you :)

Also unread messages seem to have one added some times

Ah ha; Code is *img src="/action/chart/draw?epic=INM&period=1Y&size=Medium"*

relacing * with < or >

but something is wrong with some epics(ie UKX

Screens load and refresh very quickly on my machine. Must be one of the fastest websites I have come across - Great stuff.

Any chance of cash flow being included in the fundamental data? I find it very useful as a safe guard against unpleasant surprises when looking for medium term investment candidates.

I'm not colourblind (I think) but I have to agree with Martini on the Monitor page. A bit more impact would be welcome.

could we adjust Text size a TAD on stockwatch lines viewing on 21" very small
or have I missed something ?

I use a screen resolution of 1152 x 864.
On the home page www.moneyam.com/beta the screen does not get filled right across the page and defaults to the left giving an unprofessional approach.
I think this is something to do with the way the HTML has been written .
Otherwise impressed so far

Excellent from what I've seen so far - well done all.

Little wish please...

Please can you change the colour on the bulletin board thread titles to reflect which thread's you've opened - I know you can use Total Posts and Unread Posts but I'd prefer to see the thread titles changing too (perhaps to a tasty shade of orange?)

btw

I think the yellow and red card system is an excellent idea.

Wishing you all well for the future.

Just noticed when you hover the mouse over the "Indices" tab the word that appears is spelt "Indicies"..............;-)

When I enter the site and click on a thread, it asks me to sign in. Every time I sign in, it asks me for my password, first time I click "ok" it gives me this error message below. Back it up, click a second time and it allows me in the site. However it sends me back to the homepage rather into the thread I clicked to enter in the first place.Grumble grumble.

Pay me ?50,000 consultation fee and I'll put all this right for you :-)

Where's the bloody pound ????? (here.no) sign ? Ah a sign it's going into Euro is it ??? No

Ah ha, neither euro or pound sign works, does dollar ??$?$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Cheap crap American software only dollars show, crumby or what

Addo: I can assure you that this most definitely not "cheap crap American software" -- it's British through and through. Have a look at our website http://ist.co.uk and our list of customers and you'll see that we are one of the few UK success stories in software in the USA.

Your 50k consultation fee would be excessive.

In defence of the team that have put this together, you must remember that this has been done in record time. Also this is a Beta test so you've been invited to help test the site because we know that there must be problems to be found.

Cheers

MM

Mighty Micro,

Touchy touchy, please click my name and read my profile here before you start wanting to ban me.

?50k is my normal fee for trouble shooting, if it makes you baulk, then of course you can't afford my expertise :-)

If it's British, why then do no pound signs and euro signs, but dollar signs do work ?? Is it totally original software or has it been modelled on any other site or BB system ?? I highly doubt it is totally 100% proprietary software.

As a beta tester, I'm giving up my time for nothing to help you out, so please be patient and understanding.

Regards

Addo

LOL, Mighty Micro, I can't access your site, oh dear. I'll look at it later. Shall I report any bugs for that site here as well ??

Addo

Ban you? Not my province. I'm just a humble techonology provider. I'll leave it to Bullshare, our chairman.

Why do you doubt that it's 100% proprietary? It was all written from scratch by IST in Reading. Nothing borrowed, nothing blue.

I agree there's a wierd problem with the pound sign but euro works for me. As you appear to be a technical whizz, perhaps you can detect a problem at the client end?

I can acccess the IST site just fine from California, perhaps the wet string to the BVI is broken. If you need Internet or networking experts, we have staffers with 25 years experience who can help you.

Cheers

MM

Mighty Micro, is it really totally 100% original or not ? It looks very much like some other sites, and/or BB facilities are you sure that nothing was borrowed or a template used??

My technical expertise confirms the pound or euro signs are not showing up, and I have the relevant fonts installed so it's not me. Technically speaking there is a spanner.

I am a computer duffer/luddite that is obvious from anyone who knows me. I probably brought more security issues to light on the ADVFN site than any other person, for the good I feel. I mentioned Apache servers on one thread and the whole world descended on me like a ton of hot brown stuff.

Bullshare may ban me now.

Regards, and keep tapping.

ps now how about my first request above on clicking the password button and it throwing up a load of nonsense as listed a number of posts above ??

Addo: Thanks for the feedback regarding the stack trace above. The problem only occurs with certain browsers, and is caused by the redirected URL from the login page containing the string "&" instead of "&". We've fixed it here; I'll send the fix over and see if they can get it in the beta site ASAP.

I'm not sure whether this would be an enhancement but it's an idea (probably stupid!)...

I notice you have a button "Bulletin Boards" (plural). Is there something to be said for having a number of bulletin boards dealing in different subjects? Perhaps you've already thought about this and dismissed it.

And another screen showing all updated threads from each of the bulletin boards during the last 24 hours (or since Friday on Monday morning).

For example, one bulletin board for each of the following:

FTSE 100
FTSE 250
Small and fledgling companies
AIM stocks
Other subjects - eg political, sports, jokes, current affairs
Futures and Warrants
Indexes (eg FTSE, DJIA, S&P, etc)
American stocks
European stocks
CFDs
Bugs and enhancements

Possibly this is too many (or too few?). Maybe it would be "governed" by how many threads are created in each area and when it reached a certain level, a bulletin board would be created and the relevant threads moved across. Likewise if the response dropped, the threads would be switched to another BB.

Most of us (I think) tend to "specialise" in specific areas. Some people don't touch small companies, others leave futures well alone, etc. A number of specialised bulletin boards could prevent much wading through treacle.

Just a thought.

MM

Just chuck Addo in a bath full of vile green alcohol and tell him to swim for it.

;-)

Gausie, that was a long time ago, LOL, I still squirm thinking about it. Please drop me a line with who it was that squelched.

How are yah ? Bin a long time

Addo
ps ipenning, thanks, that's what we're here for.
