	In the interim between this new client first appearing, being taken down, and now replaced and (it seems) accessible to all, I added map zoom on mouse wheel. You can also hold SHIFT to zoom faster... I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	Seems like Shift Key + mouse wheel goes backwards and forwards in browsing history (in both IE and Firefox) by default. At least if you have zoomed out (and got back to your home page) you can zoom in again to get to SOL... Only other comment - Mind blowingly good look and feel to the application.. excellent.. amazing.. --- Last Edited by ybw_mjm at 2012-02-17 22:43:47 ---

	I just hook into the Flash support for mouse wheel, so things may vary depending on browser - I don't have all browsers to test on I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	One thing I may have forgotten to mention about the new client: The mouse coord information at map top right is now automatically updated. So, if you use the arrow keys to move the weather slider, you can 'park' the mouse at some point and the data will update as the slider moves It also updates every time new data is received for your boat - so the distance and bearing values will change. This can be quite handy when approaching a mark or headland to round, as you can 'park' the mouse over the location of manoeuvre and see the distance counting down with each boat update...

	It is working fine for me in IE8... Im not sure what to suggest other than a cache purge and reload I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

	cheers AG, got home logged in and no problems, except for seeing where i am. perhaps its saying i shouldn't be doing it at work. cleared the cache but it didn't ask for a reload, will have another play tomorrow
