Application form teething problems
It seems a few people are having some trouble with the online application form. I'll try and get a help page up sometime tomorrow but if your struggling I have an easier way ;). Once you have completed the form use the save option in Acrobat Reader to save it to your local hard drive, then add it as an attachment to a normal email directly to me. The email address you will need to send it to is join@morrisminors.uk.com .
Hope thats of help.

I think I've managed to sort out the textline errors that were coming up on the form and resorted the tab order so if your anti-mouse like me you'll find it a bit easier to fill in. As for the emailing problem I'll have a bash tonight when I get home from work although I suspect a lot of it is to do with the default email program on each individual PC. Being XP mine defaults to Outlook Express (YUKKIE) so I've set outlook to use my hotmail account and the form works fine for me now. Maybe an option for some but not all I fear.

I just tried it on a Mac. The buttons at the bottom don't do anything, and if you save it from Safari you lose any changes you made to it, but if you then open it in Preview you can make changes and save them. I agree the tab ordering is weird.

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.

As I said, you can fill it in and save it from Preview but not Safari.

Ah, Acrobat. Preview is much nicer because it uses Quartz 2D's native PDF rendering engine.

Right I've had a play and changed the signup page a bit! The PDF is still there (without the buttons now) so it can be filled in and just printed, I've also added an online form with a remote collection point!
alex_holden, could you try it out for me on your Mac? If you go back to the signup page and click the online application form link and it hould open a new window with a list of field. Let me know when you've done it (doesn't have to be accurate info, just as a test run ;) ) and I'll check it again.
Thanks a lot guys for your patience.
