Hey kids, we’re eatin’ tonight

Since Zenutech is currently reinvesting all revenue into growth (equipment and advertising) and I still need to eat, there was a need to take on a job. Zenutech clients need not worry however, I am still committed to Zenutech. In fact, I should have more time to put into Zenutech because I will have more evenings and weekends off. Previously, I was going to school full-time and definitely didn’t have evenings and weekends off.

In early June I was offered a contract job as a Web Designer with Best Buy Canada. Best Buy is an American owned company who bought Future Shop in 2000. They have kept the Future Shop brand for Canada but the Future Shop company no longer exists. I am working on the big project for futureshop.ca. You will be able to see some of my work on futureshop.ca toward the end of this month.

Hopefully your not the one that made futureshop.ca not work with firefox.

Most of the developers that work on futureshop.ca use Firefox as their primary development browser and test in IE. As a result, futureshop.ca works perfectly with Firefox and IE.

If you have a specific bug, simply submit it to me here and I will make sure that it gets fixed.

Well looking at your site here, I figured that it should work with firefox. (based on how you recommend it here)

I submitted my problem using the webmaster address on the site and the lady that replied Rachel W, said that Firefox was not supported, and then when I asked what was, she said only IE. (which I then replied and said was the stupidest thing ever, since there goes 13% of browsers)

But anyways, my specific issue is trying to get to page 2 of any multiple page listing of items.

I click on the ’2′ and I can see javascript:submitpageclick(’2′) in the status bar, but clicking does nothing.
