Exercises not working

I am probably stating something very obvious -- but the excerises I have been trying are broken at the moment.

Just tried this one:

The blog seems to have been fried as well. More server problems?

I think whatever glitch came across the internet has been solved. I can now succesfully load the exercises.

No more time-outs, broken images & scripting errors.

The blog is accessible again as well.

Fingers crossed that this applies to my home machine as well ;-)

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your response! It is still broken.I am at work at the moment and its the same problem as I have at home.

I have tried:

IE8

Chrome 5.0.375.125

Firefox 3.6.8

Just crossed my mind that it might be because I am using the traditional exercises?

I will e-mail you a screen dump of IE8 & Firefox.

Martijn

Hi Martijn, I would suggest updating your Javascript to the newest version. Try the exercise in Simplified Chinese. It seems like you are the only one experiencing this problem. Our tech team can't determine what is causing this to happen.

Hi martijin819, can you tell me which internet browser you are using? I've just tested the exercise and it seems to be working properly.

Busy catching up with exercises, so they flow again. Must have been an internet hickup.
