Not that it makes much difference as I'll be working my arse off battling magento which doesn't seem to understand the fact that some people *really* don't have javascript enabled.

Lets hope y'all have better plans than me :D

Have a good 'magento battle' of a weekend.
We are up to our armpits in Carpet Samples for the weekend. The better half is a perfect example of a a chick who reserves her right to not make up her mind and there are bits of carpet all over the place.
I've resorted to just nodding and making encouraging noises. To think that we haven't even started with paint colour charts.

Football's on the box tonight... blessed relief.

Bugger, my football team got thrashed and misses the finals....
It's Monday. The carpet saga needs resolution. I'm taking the samples back to the shops and making an 'executive' decision.
It could be the end of a beautiful friendship :roll:

Unlucky with the football, lets hope you make a better choice when it comes to the carpet.

I'm currently trying to decide which of the deaths I'd like to apply to magento, I'm rapidly going off the bloody thing :|

I'm more confident of you winning with magento than me with carpets.
At least the house is cleared and I came home with a good price ticket.... she's still talking to me.

The way it's going I think I'd prefer your problem :P

Sometimes it's better when they stop talking to you ;)

Lets hope that ¥åßßå has fixed the Magento problem and that John's better half has picked her carpet :)

Well, on the grounds that the client is currently sat on his arse on a beach in Greece I decided to ignore magento for a couple of days ;)

The good news is that I can cure their javascript so the customers can actually checkout. The bad news is it *appears* to be impossible to make it work without javascript.

So, I guess we make it work with javascript, get the site launched and then go looking for a better shopping cart .... after I make a rant post about how crap magento is ;)

Someone said you were back in the old country. Hope you had a great time and didn't get too sunburnt.
Look forward to the holiday snaps.
