Bike in Bath website updated

Well, some of my criticisms in yesterday's blog about the Bike in Bath website have been addressed fairly quickly.

They've re-worded the subscription instructions to make it clear where you have to click. (Although I think you should just be able to click the word "Register" in the instructions to take you to the registration page. There, I just did it!)

And you can now type a full UK postcode into the box on the registration page. (Even if they do still call it a ZIP code for some reason.)

But on the registration page there are THREE fields for "State". One is an empty text entry field, the other two are pull-downs listing countries. Plus there are TWO pull-downs for "Country", neither of which is usable because they're empty.

A lot of the typos I mentioned are still there - four instances of "avabile" on the Stations page; "RECHARG" on the home page; "Holburne" still incorrectly spelled "Holbourne" on the home page graphic; a page called "SUBSCIBE". And the grey text is still jumping back and forth.

One typo I didn't notice before:


 It should be "bicycles". In fact it should be "7 free bicycles out of 15", but let's not be too picky.

Sorry, guys. You're getting there, but you've still got a way to go.
