+HitsMan and Chris Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 When I first used Geocaching.com, I could bring up the Hide & Seek a Cache page on my PDA, search by keyword, zip, or something and get a list of caches. Now when I do that, I get the list header and footer, but no list items. The new list format must be non-standard. I'm using the Blazer browser on a Treo 300 PCS-Vision enabled PDA. While I like the new list format when accessing via a PC, there are many times I'm out in the field and need to look up something I hadn't "Plucked" and there is no way to get to a cache page anymore. I'd really love it if a Blazer-compatible list were restored. Link to comment
+Frolickin Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 I just tested this with my iPAQ and IE and all works as it should. Just for reference, Fro. ________________________________________ Geocaching . . . hiking with a purpose Link to comment

The links simply don't work. This is, no doubt, caused by the mickey-mouse java script linking that's being used. Hard to understand this type of "improvment". "Don't mess with a geocacher.

+HitsMan and Chris Posted August 15, 2003 Author Share Posted August 15, 2003 Any updates on this? Seems like these problems would be solved by offering a very simple alternate cache list template with PDA-friendly HTML links. I'm not asking for a new feature, just restoration of one that I had when I signed up for my premium membership. Link to comment
Swagger Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 I posted a lengthy message about exactly this problem here. No replies... I've concluded that TPTB won't respond to a message posted about a problem with the site unless they already know what the problem is AND they plan to fix it very quickly. The login issue is a perfect example. Countless threads in the forums and it didn't even get an acknowledgement until they solved the problem over a month later. Don't hold your breath. Jeremy has his own agenda and the paying members of this site are just a thorn in his side. -- Pehmva! Random quote: Link to comment
