Self pump out points
jolly bargeman
kindly offered to supply a list of those sanitation points suitable for
self pump outs (presumably those on mains sewers rather than into
septic tanks). Does anyone know of this list or where I can get a
definitive answer as to those where it is 'permitted' rather than
tolerated?

A couple of people on the NG and Mailing Lists have offered to put lists
together but they never seamed to get off the ground, It needs feedback from
users (us) to keep such lists up to date.

I'm sure that CanalPlan could support such a list, just like it could
support details of recycling points. But as pointed out, it needs
feedback from people to keep the lists up to date and thats where it
all goes wrong (The Events facility on CanalPlan being a prime example
of that - the feature is there but people dont keep it upto date).

Possibly like me, they have a problem accessing the events facility.
Bit like the "more" button on the pictures pages, the "submit an event to
canalplan" button also takes me nowhere.
See -
http://www2.mihalis.net/canal/cgi-bin/index.cgi?event=list
I have mentioned the "more" problem to Nick in the past but he reckons it is
ok with him
Apologies if the problem is just with me.

Indeed, it already does support them, and has the few that I know about
in there.

Indeed - I've not had event sent in for about 6 months now, and CBA to
go through the waterway mags and type them all in for myself.
I need to find some way to incentivise the supply of information.
People love to submit photos, because they are seen and credited to
people. It's much more rewarding to have your photo of Boggs Lock on
the home page than to be credited with providing 3 sanitary stations and
a tin can depot.
Perhaps a "collect points and get a free CD" approach?

Well I'm not sure it's you. But you do seem to have a remarkably picky
browser. The HTML at that point isn't very good, I'll agree, but I'm
not sure it's actually broken.
Interestingly, the syntax there and around the "More" button is the same
on both pages.
Tell you what - try the "submit events" one now - does it work any
better?

No, because it wasn't there when I posted mine.

I didn't check to see if you had enabled that feature before starting my

I will crib all your information on the assumption that you can use all
mine. I posted this on list to make sure everybody knows that both are now

Two points on this thread :-
1. I have a list of S.P.O.Ps kindly sent to me by David Hymers, the person
who mentioned it in WW. Having included some I've used that he didn't list,
I am in the process of creating a self pumpout section on the Jannock

2. It is amazing the number of BW sani points that state "no self pumpout"

A chap could take offence at this statement but I will let you orf this time
!
Co- incidentally I am running the same - xpie6andspybot, but have not had
any warnings.
As Nick knows , I have no trouble with the "see and add photos " button -
so I still suspect the cause is in the programming.
I know nothing about the latter so cannot presume to advise.

No problem here with either the forthcoming events or the "more" on
the photos page. I'm using Opera 8.52 on Windows XP, with very strict
settings in Kerio Personal Firewall and with all scripting, animation,
pop-ups, plug-ins and other works of the devil turned off.

A quick and dirty test by copying code to hard drive and editing out
unnecessary bits, shows me that the first one fails to work and the second
one works fine.... I added the closing body and html tags which you omitted,
but that's not the error ;-) I'm no expert in buttons, so I can't comment
on the actual code. System is XP pro SP2, with IE6, all fully updated.

I can't remember. I think it's a sort of feeling that "doing" stuff is
an action and should be driven by a button, while a link should just
take you to a place.

"liame" is, in fact, the "email" link - the spammers haven't found it
yet (a later enhancement will rename the script at each build).
I've now made it both a normal HTML link, and a bit like a button. This
may well be a bit of madness I will regret and abandon at some stage.

Thanks Nick - all three buttons now work fine here.
Welcomed also, is the picture location change facility.
Already used to shuffle one of yours a bit. (hopefully)
We look forward to the photo description change facility going live.
