JavaScript
Tick Off to Take Off uses JavaScript to create an enhanced user experience.
The main navigation menu of the web site (at the top-left of the page) uses JavaScript to generate 'pop-up' menus.
Some old web browsers and text based web browsers, do not support JavaScript, and the menu system will not function correctly. If you are using one of these browsers, you will see a warning message below this paragraph. If JavaScript is working, you will see a message that says "JavaScript is enabled" directly below this paragraph.
We strongly recommend that you use a modern browser, such as Mozilla Firefox 2 or Netscape 8 . If you do have to use an incompatible browser, we recommend you navigate the site using the following versions of Tick Off to Take Off, as they provide a simple, text-based menu of the site contents.
If your browser does support JavaScript, but it has been disabled, you will also see a warning message above this paragraph. For the best experience of Tick Off to Take Off, we strongly recommend that you enable JavaScript. This web site does not use cookies, or automatic pop-up windows that can annoy the user - these are the most common reasons that users might choose to disable JavaScript.
Please check your browser's settings/preferences, and enable JavaScript (or Active Scripting). Consult the built-in help of your web browser for further information.
