Hi!
Thanks for the input - I implement your suggestions in the next version! On the subject of the server being down - apparently it goes down randomly, I think because the company it is hosted with (for free) is somewhat unreliable. I have heard other reports of issues regarding the server, and I wish i could fix them, but I have a situation:
I don't think that Bean Counter (and my other little applications) merit paying $15, and then $10 a month to host...which leaves me at a loss as to what to do in the way of hosting. I tried hosting it at my house for a while, but it was not very successful (if the power went out or the server crashed I wouldn't notice it was down for weeks at a time), so I went on a hunt for free hosting. So far sphosting (the current host) is the most reliable and efficient host that I could find. I have been through several hosts so far, and they all seem to have their problems (one site has every user page automatically download a .exe spyware program to the viewer's computer - yay.) So, we are at this point...where the hosting is good but not great. I apologize for any inconvenience the website may have caused you, but at least you got to see my site - oh, wait, the old webhosts ate it and I haven't made a new one! Well, anyway, have a good one and I hope you enjoy Bean Counter as much as I enjoyed making it!
