Today I had a thorough discussion with my daughter-in-law. We have
categorised pages on the basis of accessibility
1. Pages like the main page and alphabetic lists which open normally
2. Pages which show deceptive site for few seconds, then opens but no
images are shows, we only see their site address
3. Pages which show deceptive site screen and the page never opens.
We will work on this tomorrow but problem seems to lie with images.
Till we find an alternative solution, I think we change the method of
insertion. We may download the images on computer and them insert them
through direct upload to our website. This should work. After all we have
contributed the same images (and that contributes the bulk mainly by Garg
ji, Dinesh ji, me, Prashant ji, Pankaj ji Pravin ji, Aarti ji, and others)
to Flowers of India, which is working very well.
