Strange... it seems to work here with different browsers and stuff.. What do you use? Windows? Apple? Firefox? Safari? Internet Explorer?

I'm sorry.. I can't see what

I'm sorry.. I can't see what the problem is.. I have tested the following and it all worked:

Macbook: Safari 3.2.1 and Firefox 3.0.11
Windows Vista: Firefox 3.0.11 and Internet Explorer 8
Ubuntu linux: Firefox

You can always go to http://altrobe.net/stuff/tabview/ and copy + paste the tabs to convert them to sheetmusic.

Tabs Searches

I liked the old system where there was the drop-down menu for the band and the drop down menu for the instrument. I can't quite figure out how to narrow down the search to trumpet only. Also, will there be a way to see ratings on the tabs before the music is opened?
-Thanks

If you click on 'Trumpet' in the right column

If you click on 'Trumpet' in the right column, your search will be narrowed down to only trumpet tabs.

access

Hey, I LOVE THIS SITE, I check this site every day, however, I rarely can actually access this site. This is the first time in maybe 2 months that I have actually gotten on to this site. Every time I try to get on, it gives me a message saying the servers are taking too long to respond, I have tried other browsers, if you can offer me any help, it would be greatly appreciated. However, I am not too sure I will see it.

Thanks for the awesome site!

Downtime?

Whats up with all the downtime recently? Seems like every time I come looking for a tab the site is down. I love the site, but it sucks that it seems to be down more than up these days.

I think there's something

I think there's something going on at the new hosting provider.. I'm trying to tweak the site so it uses less memory and I hope that will solve the problem.

Bandwith may be the issue.

There's also the fact that at one point, you went down at exactly noon EST DST. I think there was a huge allocation of bandwith from another site also on the server and that screwed with the site.

The problem should be solved now. Something went wrong in moving the domain name to another server...
