Further Updates

We are planning further more updates for the other countries we currently have set-up and be launching others as well in the process. We hope to have it all done by the ’5th March 2011′. We have made some improvements and added some support for the iPad device and the new IE9 browser for Windows.

We have noticed some countries are using a slightly older system than the others and require more attention. This is one of the reasons we are performing these updates.

Current Countries available now:

  • Argentina
  • Belgium – Updated
  • Canada – Updated
  • France – Updated
  • Luxembourg – Updated
  • Spain
  • United Kingdom – Updated

Countries to be launching soon:

Support for IE6 removing & adding IE9 instead

Internet Explorer, one of the first browsers to support security more than displaying the content of the site 100% to what web designers design the site to look like.

Now with IE9 coming soon to a final release is providing both security and design all round.

MaMaisonMiCasa is adding new features to support IE9′s great additions to the browser. Unfortunately that means we will no longer be supporting IE6 and we will slowly be rolling out support for it. This is because of two reasons.

  1. IE6 is unsecured and does not give the user the full aspect of our site features.
  2. We kept support for IE6 as much as possible for users who were still using that version of Internet Explorer but now the majority of our visitors and users are on IE7 or IE8.

So we are saying good bye to IE6 and welcoming IE9. If you visit our site using IE6 you will be redirected to another page telling you to either upgrade or use another browser.

Detecting users location updated

We had a few problems with some users visiting the site for the countries we have up so far where the user was redirected to the wrong country when visiting the main web address. For some users in France they were redirected to Luxembourg instead. An update has been dealt with to fix this problem. All though we can not be 100% sure that this will not happen again we will do our best to correct it if it happens again.

If you have visited http://www.mamaisonmicasa.com directly and was redirected to another country other than the one you are in to view or advertise properties, please leave a comment on this post to let us know.

Thank you.

PayPal Characters Wrong

We found out today that we had a problem with customers trying to pay through PayPal today and were unable to do so. We can now safely say that it has been fixed and customers can now pay for there property using PayPal. The problem was we had the wrong character settings for the site used in the French language. PayPal was unable to recognise the French characters. Now it can and there should no longer be any problems. We apologise for any customers who had experienced this problem and that they may now go and pay for there property to be published.
