Peace. To what level of detail do you want comments? I could give you many many comments on the site. It would probably be best to do so in the form of a spreadsheet, rather than making individual comments here. Please let me know, ok?

Peace. I have recently downloaded Firefox, and can use it if I need to. But, until recently, I've only used Internet Explorer.

Is it your goal to make this site functional with IE as well? If so, I'll be happy to test with it and give you some feedback on what the "not quite best experience" is like. (To start with, it appears that I cannot Add an organization).

If I need to use Firefox, I'm certainly open to doing so -- will give me a good opportunity to learn that tool!

Melinda, we are replacing those links with a tabbed helper panel. Hope you will like it when it is ready.

Can we replace “text formatting” with “how to enter text”. Can we replace “Image Management” with “How to add an image/photo”?

Thanks

Adam, what you are suggesting is exactly how it should be, however Flash player (6 degree app) doesn't allow us to maintain state. This means if you navigate out of that page, when you come back you will find the 6 degree app showing the node it started with, not the one you were looking at.

We will continue investigating though.

one feature that would be great would be to have state as well as city and country on refine search so that US people can focus on a region, not just a postal code. thanks!!

it seems that it would serve the clicking and searching function better if a new window does Not open when selecting URL from the six degrees application. staying in the same window would allow backtracking and continuing search without cluttering the users desktop.

thanks

I noticed that the key word "economic development" has a typo. It is spelled "economic develpment"
Thanks!

We need to show state along with city, at least in the US on the right side of search results so that when you click on Portland, you get either Portland, Oregon or Portland, Maine, but not both. Thanks!

Liz, great feedback. I will create tickets for these items.

As for the areas of focus questions, I don't have an answer. Do you think it is necessary to show the parents of a chosen area? We might want to consider a solution that will also accomodate deep hierarchies, like the ones we will probably have in Wiser categories.

Amazon Watch page: Nice work!!! I obviously have one or three comments!

- if you click on San Francisco (or any of the other geographical links from the General Info address section) it would be useful if there is some text telling you what you are looking at: e.g. in the Results line, such as: Results of all organisations in San Francisco 1 to 10 of 348.
- if you then decide to refine your search within San Francisco results, it would be useful to know that you are searching for Media orgs but still in SF. e.g. Results of Media Organisations in San Francisco 1 to 10 etc. etc.
- if you click on the Scope link straight from the view page it takes you to National orgs, but of all nations. Is there some way this link could take you to the National orgs of the country of the org you are looking at? The same thing happens when you click on org Type.
- the Source link is not displayed on the View page for orgs where the website is unknown. It would be useful to show the source, I think, but probably only where we don't know the website (or do we want to display it all the time?)
- I really like the Donate Now link, I was just wondering why the link from the bottom of the org view page takes you to JustGive and the Donate link on the right hand panel takes you to Care2? Do we want options of various donation sites, or should we be consistent?
- are the phone numbers coming straight from the data entry? If there is some formatting within the forms then there should be a space between the 1 and 800 in the tollfree number
- areas of focus: I like the descriptions!! Do we want the areas alphabetised (right now Environmental Justice is listed between Indigenous People and Indigenous Lands for the Amazon Watch entry)? Or do we want to show the main areas and alphabetise those, with the chosen areas listed alphabetically under that (e.g. like the internal database at the moment).
- If we are going to generate a Table of Contents box automatically, then it might look better with a little most spacing between the text and the box
- the History link at the top right of the page - could this be called 'Edit History'? (I clicked on it looking for history of the org)
- is the Email icon to email the org view page to someone? Would it be useful to have a scroll over message saying that?

Nice job!

I've added some anchor tags that snap you up to the preview pane when you click the preview button. Also added an anchor link back to the edit box so you won't feel so disoriented. This is pretty conventional stuff and worth adding, thanks.

the edit box remains in view and the preview gets updated sometimes outside the view. Not sure what would be the best solution though. Repositioning the window to the top of the preview area might disorient the user if the previewed content is too long. Just a message informing the user might work best?

Doesn't it do that already?

Preview Functionality: when I click on preview, it would be nice if it goes on top of the page directly so i can see the preview. Does that make sense?

Thanks
