1 July 2007
Added to the Climate section the 2007 / 2008 Climate data pages. As
each month of climate data is completed that month can be found using the
Previous
Months link on the climate pages. Follow the pages and select the
season and month of interest.
Currently the climate archive has data stating October 2005 for rain fall,
temperature and other data starting November 12, 2005.
Updated several grammar errors on the Home page.
13 June 2007
Added to the Insects / Spiders section of Wildlife,
Cricket.
You will also find links of a sound clip of a Cricket in the field of
Quailhaven. They will play in a pop up page using your QuickTime Media
player. If you don't have QuickTime there is a link, on the pop up
page, that should play in your default media player setup in your browser.
On the
Links
page I added a
link to an interesting web site.
11 June 2007
Updated the
Frog &
Toad page Frog Sound link pop up
pages. The window now has a QuickTime Media player embed in it. There
is a link below to open the file in your default media player in case your
browser does not support the embed player. This is confirmed working
in IE, Firefox & Netscape.
Note: The previous embed Windows Media player was not my first choice.
It was also giving compatibility problems in Netscape browser, version 7.1,
causing it to crash.
See 08 May 2007 for more details.
09 June 2007
Updated the
Frog &
Toad page Frog Sound links. They now open in a separate pop up
window. The window has a Windows Media player embed in it. There
is a link below to open the file in your default media player in case your
browser does not support the embed player.
See 08 May 2007 for more details.
08 June 2007
Updated the
Frog &
Toad page text. I also added two other Frog Sound links.
They are both a smaller file size. The WAV file is 132 KB and the MP3
file is a very small 38 KB. They are both the same recording as the
previous one, but in mono and lower sound quality.
This gives a faster option for dialup users.
See 08 May 2007 for more details.

On the

Added frog sounds to the

It is a mp3 file that should open in your browsers default media player.

13 April 2007
Added to the Wild Flowers section of Flora
California Fawn Lily.

naming rules.

copyright year.
8 March 2007
Pictures section was updated with Snow pictures for February 2007 - Group 6.
See Pictures - Group 6, Thumb
viewer or Picture show. Recommend Broadband for Picture Show.
5 March 2007
Bug fixes:
Updated images and missing sub pages in image directory section. (This is
fixing the progressive scan issue in IE 7, discovered 4 March 2007.)
4 March 2007
Bug fixes:
Discovered partial repeating words using IE 7 browser on medium size text
only. This occurred in some of the narrow text boxes, of the group pictures
pages, at the end of a line. I added a return to that text to force a
wrap of the text. (This seems to be a bug in the new IE 7 browser for
narrow column text blanking on wrap.)
Replaced home page pictures because they were not working in progressive
scan in IE 7. (The previous pictures were created with Photoshop 5 and
worked perfectly in Firefox.)
4 March 2007
Added an automated date sub page for
Guest Book - View pages. This will
show the last entry date in the guest book data base. This is less
prone to error than the previous page date
automation. It does require extra space for text expansion which
required a redesign of the upper and lower sections.
3 March 2007
Bug fixes:
Linked climate database generated sub forms to style sheet font.
Added missing rain totals metric sub form to update process in climate data
base. Replaced picture two, on home page, to have the same progressive
loading as the others.
3 March 2007
Launched the newly rebuilt, version 4, Quailhaven website. The site
has a new navigation bar, custom interactive buttons, new
color scheme, easier climate archive navigation and pop up help pages when needed.
The format of the website uses style sheets to control colors, fonts and
spacing.
The new format can use different desk top sizes from 800 x 600 and up.
It is also works well using large font enlargements.
For extreme text enlargement the website is best viewed with Mozilla
Firefox. For normal text enlargement IE 7 works well.
Many of the pictures were updated from the original for better presentation.
The Guest Book was converted from the automated data base created web pages
to a manual format and update. Pages were reformatted for easier
reading and URL link support.
The website rebuild took over a month of research, development and testing.
23 January 2007
Updated the Favicon, or page icon, to a
Quail.
The desk top shortcut icon will look
like to this in Windows.
This is now confirmed working for IE 7.0.
Note: I have found that it may not appear instantly. Patience is
required.
See 18 January 2007 for more details.
21 January 2007
The Bat page was updated and completed.
It can be found at: Wildlife - Mammals -
Bat.
19 January 2007

completed. It can be found at: Flora - Trees -
Oak.
18 January 2007
A new visual feature called a Favicon,
or page icon, was added to the Entrance page and main category pages,
including this page. In a few weeks, or less, it will also show on all
pages as the web site is updated.
This feature shows on the browsers web
page address, the Navigation Toolbar. It will also place the icon when
you bookmark the page. This is working for standardized browsers like
Firefox and Netscape. I'm still working on this for IE 7.0.
(You may need to select the bookmark for
the icon to show up. If you have an old book mark you may need to delete it
and re-bookmark the page, then select it.)
