Today was spent doing not a whole lot. Late in the day I had a bug brought to my attention by a member of staff. He had noticed that the text in the categories had gotten rather big in the majority of the posts. The browser in question was the dreaded Internet Explorer. Most people who work in web design that I know dread bugtesting sites in Internet Explorer, especially Internet Explorer 6. It can throw out errors for the most silly of reasons. As a result of this I went in expecting it to be a fault with the browser rather than anything else.

This was not the case however. It turns out that I had managed to leave out a / from a span tag, so rather than closing things as I had intended, I had actually opened another instance of a span. Firefox seemed to deal with this just fine, but Internet Explorer rendered it the way it read the code, and horror ensued. I swiftly resolved the error and everything works fine once again.

After this I was given some Round the World flights to add to the site. They're proving to be quite the pain to handle because of the whole Flutter thing. There was a shiny new update to it today though, so maybe I'll make some progress when I'm back in on Friday.

This will be the final entry in my Placement Log as the hand in is tomorrow and I won't have any additions to make to it before submission date.
