Site Help

From time to time, we receive questions from our customers about using our sites. Please let us know if your question is not answered below, and we'll add it right away. We've worked hard to make our site as easy as possible for you to use, but should you still encounter any difficulty, we hope you'll take a few minutes to read through the tips provided below.

We've built the site to be viewable in more modern browsers because modern browsers support more advanced functions, including JavaScript. JavaScript allows us to move things around the screen, change displays, and generally make our site more interactive and interesting. JavaScript is usually enabled by default in all browsers. If you have trouble using our menus, for example, most likely your browser's JavaScript has been disabled.

Keeping Your Browser Up-To-Date Makes The Internet More Fun

If it's been a while since you installed your Internet browser, we encourage you to upgrade to a newer version for an optimal online experience:

If you have already upgraded, and you still have difficulty using our site, make sure you have JavaScript turned in your browser's preferences panel.
