CASILIST : CASI Member Page Update Status

I have been pleased with the number of page EDIT's that I have received
this week from CASI Members who are adding information to their Member
Pages. However, I still encourage the rest of you to take this
opportunity to check to make sure your info is correct and submit any
changes you need to CASI.

A couple things have come up that I wanted to let y'all know about:

NOTE: If you are the original submitter for an ORGANIZATIONAL Member you
have two pages to EDIT, your Org.'s page and your Personal Page. If you
want me to do the same changes you submit to one, to both, just let me
know.

NOTE: The Map server doesn't process P.O. Boxes or sometimes Route #'s
very well. This could lead to your map placing you in the wrong area or
causing an extra screen inbetween your Member Page and the Map Server's
map page. What you can do - if you are submitting your Address try to
give me a road or street name, even if you don't have a number. I can
still list your address as a P.O. Box if you need me to as this field is
separate from the MapAddress field.

NOTE: Originally my plan was to "change from green to pink" all Public
Fields which were to be Private, however I have realized that with the
current way I am doing things this is not efficient. Until I think of a
better way I am inserting (in Bold) the following text into those Public
Fields:
**Members Only** (with a link to your Private page).

Those of you who haven't gotten a response yet please be patient. I
have been spending all my free time this week working on the Member
EDIT's which are manual at this time until I figure out a way to script
them. This combined with a general lack of free time on my part and the
cornucopia of severe weather today is not helping, however I will have
all EDIT's done by this weekend. Thanks for your understanding!
