Web Site Problem
The NC State University's Web server was upgraded on July 1, 2008. Specifically, PHP was upgraded from 4.0 to 5.2. Unfortunately, this has caused some problems on the JCRA Web site. Many pages have been fixed, but some problems remain. J. C.'s Slide Collection seems to work okay, but some errors are generated. Now Showing years 2004 through 2006 no longer link correctly, but 2007 and 2008 are fine.
