Web Projects

1. Tom got a call that the mobile app hours were not showing - weekly hours on Verizon iPhone. Thought it might be a firmware or java issue. The computer availability tool was also not functional. Turned out to be something in Firefox 5. It happens on public computers if you have a lot of tabs open. Tom was able to resolve it by getting the user to close tabs and reload the page.
