Hi Brynn, can your IE still interpret the contents of those tutorials? - For me, they don't work at all, neither in Chromium nor in Firefox. And also, all links I clicked on on the formular or list page were dead. There are some boxes, and they are clickable, but nothing happens. Some of the js the website needs doesn't even exist any more.
I think you can happily leave them out... or do they work for you?
