Frequently Asked Questions
1.0 Access to the Inyo
SAR Calendar
Follow the Calendarlink from the main page. This requires no
password. To view the calendar, just press the "Public Access" button
on the left. If you need to add/delete/modify events, then you must
register for an account by supplying your favorite username and
password. After about a day, you'll be notified by e-mail regarding
your account.
2.0 Access to the Members
Only area.
Follow the Members
Only link from the main page. You
should be presented with a login screen asking for a name and password.
This is a unique pair independent from the Calendar account discussed
in 1.0 above. If you don't already know the name and password, call
someone who does or ask for it at the next general meeting. This area
contains the Callout Sheet, which members should try to keep up to date
with their current information.
2.1 Changing the Callout
Sheet
Press the 'change' button and wait for a
forms page to appear. Find your info, change it, then press the 'Save'
button at the bottom of the page. DO NOT reduce the number of Members
until further notice. If you wish to remove someone, just delete the
information but do not change the 'Number of Members' field. After
making your changes, re-check the page. If anything looks out of place,
send mail to rick and
describe as best you can what was done.

Browsers to Use
This web site uses HTML frames
which are supported by most of the more recent popular browsers ( Netscape , Mozilla , Opera
and IE). Please try to upgrade as this will save effort trying to create
pages which satisfy old technology.
4.0 Which links off the
main page should work?
So far (01-21-2003) all links
should bring up at least a blank page with a title and the background
you see here. If not, let someone know at the general meeting.
The FAQ link should bring you here. The Calendar link should take you
to the Inyo SAR Calendar and the Members Only link should bring up a
page asking for a name and password.
5.0 Adding recurring events to the Calendar keep giving an error.
Adding recurring events seems to be a bit
picky. Here's one way to get it to work. Start at the top of the form and enter
in your Subject, use the 'Tab' key to move to the next entry. For entries which
are drop down menus or already have something typed in(ie. day Names), use the
up/down arrow to modify. Other entries which are blank require you to type
something in. Keep this up until you have 'Tabbed' all the way to the bottom
of the form. Now click the add button and hopefully the event will be saved.
