Frustration

 It has been a day of frustration. It all started when the Gorse Fox woke up during the night and, when trying to drift back off to sleep, he had an idea for the website. This kept him awake.

After breakfast he had the chance to start exploring the idea. In essence, it was sound. The information was easily extracted and stored on the website. The problem lay in how to display it. It seems that a "plug-in" is available which will display a pdf file within the web page. This should be ideal. YouTube was consulted and examples of its use demonstrated. The Gorse Fox thought he was on to something.

The "plug-in" was downloaded and activated. It was configured according to the instructions. A test page was developed and displayed. Nothing. Nada. Rien. The rest of the morning was spent trying to find out what the Gorse Fox had done wrong (the assumption that he is wrong it is always his starting point). The problem was still outstanding when it was time to collect Ellie. It will have to stay as "unresolved" until the weekend.
