I would swear that they used to have digital images for the early PR's for Leyton parish, because I kept going back to look and see how far forward they had got with it, but now they say they don't hold the PR's for that parish and so they can't make digital images available for it, although they have microfiches of those PR's.

It happens all the time that the poor programmers are agonized in the knowledge that the work needs further testing before being put into production, but are told to close their eyes and go. And that said, it's also true that software systems are unimaginably complicated, and even when you do finish all the testing you can never really predict exactly what's going to happen when you release the changes in the real world, because your test environment can never truly replicate that. But I suspect in this case, since they are charging for something that used to be free, that the rush to mediocrity can most likely be traced to a source much higher up than the lowly web developer...

Think I'll wait until it's all sorted. Seems odd to launch it on a Friday.

But we are dealing with a 'council' here so I expect the organisation is a bit different to private companies. The functionality of the site is very unwealdy but it always has been. |

So, I've finally managed to look at the image of what I thought was my 4xg-grandparents' marriage entry, and it seems it isn't them after all. Back to square one...

Well it's good news that it appears to be fixed - not such good news for you!
I assume that once you've bought a sub that how you view the images becomes more obvious? I still can't decide whether to try it for a day .... OH has so many Essex Ancestors there would be plenty of options open for me!
