What did you think of this site? What couldn’t you find?
Fill out as much information below as you can about the problem you are having.
This information will help us make this site more helpful to every one.
If you find a link that doesn't work or part #s and prices that don’t match up, let us know.
The goal for this site is to be a complete online catalog for what we sell and provide here at Chevrolet.
This goal may never be accomplished due to the shear amount of products and product lines we sell.
This site is worked on every day with something new being added, page updates to keep up with browser changes and
search engine changes, or more parts being added to the on-line data base.
With all these changes going on, an error can occur. This page is your chance to help us identify problems so that
not only you will benefit but everyone else as well.
In the areas below, give us as much information as you can. If a page can’t be seen correctly, say a back ground image
is preventing you from reading the text, tell us the name of what you are using for a browser and what version it is.
Also give us the name of the page and it’s address. The main browser this site is checked against is Netscape
Communicator because it is the most sensitive to errors and it is also the easiest browser to work with in spotting
where the error is located at on a page. This site is also checked against Internet Explorer 5.5 mainly to check to
see if the pages also display as closely as possible to how they are displayed with Netscape Communicator.
From time to time a few pages at random are check against Netscape 6.x-up, Mozilla
1.x-up and Opera 6.x-up. The pages on this site should work for any and all browsers
and all versions of browsers. We no longer support Web TV because Microsoft hasn’t made any improvements to Web TV in years now and maybe only 5 out of 64,000 people visiting our site per month are using it. It’s not even a browser in the first place so dropping support for Web TV so our web site can be made more functional for everyone that is using a computer to access the Internet with will be a benefit to all of the computer users and make my job much easier too.
Further Ramblings That May Be Of Interest About The Internet:
We are hear to sell product and help people not promote our favorite browser by making our
pages were they will only work with one Internet web browser like so many other web sites do. There is only two reasons for webmasters
to make their web sites work for only one browser and that’s to force you to use the browser they like or they are
just lazy and don’t care as long as it works for the browser they like or their boss uses. Those that do this are frowned
on by most in the industry because they are purposely making the Internet harder for everyone and reverting the Internet back
to what it was like in it’s beginnings were communication between computers and gathering information was a real pain to
accomplish.
Those that make their web site only work for Internet Explorer or put in a browser sniffer that won’t let any browser except IE have access to their web sites are doing the most harm since Microsoft
will not make a version of their browser that will work with some operating systems. Oh, yes, I can put in a browser sniffer that will not let any IE browser have access to the Chevrolet site and take them to a web page that tells the to get a real browser too, if they want access, but what’s the point, we are selling products not promoting or pushing browsers and operating systems like those Webmasters seem to be doing. To purposely block people’s access to your site just because they are using a browser you don’t like is an insane business mind set. It seems only those Webmasters that have a love affair with Microsoft ban other browsers from accessing their web sites. I’ve never seen any Webmaster ban an IE browser from their site, but I've routinely seen Webmasters ban non-IE browsers from their web sites. I've even heard recently, that Microsoft will only allow IE to be on a Windows computer when they come out with their next operating system version. Mac users will be left out in the cold too if this is true. This seems to be by design to force everyone to have to buy a Windows computer just to be able to visit IE only access web sites. By doing this, they are effectively closing
off access to anyone that uses a more stable and secure operating system then Windows, which seems to be why Microsoft doesn’t want to make a version of their web
browser that will work for those operating systems in the first place. Shame on Microsoft and shame on webmasters that force everyone to have
to use Microsoft’s operating system and web browser. Both Companies and the Webmasters doing this are moving the Internet backwards and not
forward.
There is another player in this incompatibility issue and it is the organization that is the The World Wide
Web Consortium (W3C) who creates Web standards. What they actually end up doing is just being another player like the browser companies,
etc. that want to force the Internet to be their way. An example can be shown of this by pointing out that the Crescendo Player and web page
code works for most if not all browsers and it is one of the best web page midi players I’ve ever run across, but to use the code for this
player on one of your web pages will cause your page to fail the purity test on the W3C site. This code use to pass the W3C test until W3C decided to change things. Why, I ask, if it works for all the browser that I’m aware of,
and only adds more enjoyment to a person visiting a web site. Oh, they will allow you to play music, and videos, but you have to do it
their way and usually only by using programs by companies that cost a lot of money to obtain and keep upgraded. Also, if you have ever
been to their web site, you will see that it is an extremely plain, drab, and boring site. Only recently have they put any effort into adding a bit of spice to their site which isn’t much. If it can’t be done with Cascading Style Sheets, it seems they aren’t interested in it. After spending much time on their site, it has
become apparent to me that their view of a web page is that it is to be nothing more than a page out of a novel, or a reference manual, where
few if any pictures are to be found and since a book doesn’t make sounds, neither should a web page. To meet their standards and still
make a web page work for all browsers is a lot of work, since the W3C keeps eliminating things that all browsers can recognize and some browser
companies keep insisting on creating their own standards that include things that none of the other browsers can recognize. It’s a real work of art
to be able to make a web page work for all browsers, still meet the W3C standards, and make it eye pleasing an functional to a visitor.
It is a shame that all this in-fighting and greediness is going on because the real losers are the people just wanting to
browse the Internet and most newcomers and low computer experienced people get discouraged and give up on the Internet. I personally know people
that will not get on the Internet anymore for a variety of reasons from security, ad agency outrages, spammers, hackers, constant computer fixes
and patches, constant computer repairs, and just plain flat saying “It’s not worth it for what I get out of being on the Internet”.
These friends have either dumped their computers altogether or just use them for games, word processing, or other task that the computer still
does quite well at without having to be connected to the Internet. Yes, you guessed it, they were all using computers with the Window’s operating system on them. If they had been using computers with the Linux or new Mac OS X operating systems on them, they would still be on the Internet I bet. Oh, by the way, I can add my father to the list of these people that have dumped their Windows computers now. After trying it for about a year, he gave me the computer, that my brother and I fixed up for him, and said he’s going to use the new desk he bought for the computer for making puzzles now. Well the only good thing about my father dumping his Windows computer is I won’t have to go over to his house once or twice a month anymore to clear a virus off of his computer and get it working right again. |
