Most newer web browsers -- that support CSS & modern web standards -- should display this site correctly.

This site also adapts its layout for the smaller screens of tablets and smartphones using "responsive web design" -- see: A Modern, Mobile Makeover for RVUUF’s web site; and Web Site: Recent Updates and screenshots.

Slideshows in Internet Explorer (IE): If photos in Slideshows are blank, display vertically (temporarily while still loading is ok) or shrink to 'thumbnail' size, try the View > Refresh menu command -- or use a different browser like Firefox. A warning should appear to IE users on slideshow pages.

Font size: If text seems too large or too small, use your browser's View > Text/Zoom command:

Firefox & Chrome

View > Zoom > Zoom In/Out

Safari

View > Make Text Bigger/Smaller

Internet Explorer

View > Text Size > Larger/Smaller

Reload current web page: If you think your web browser is not showing the latest information (it may have cached an older version), use your browser's View > Reload/Refresh command:

Firefox

View > Reload

Chrome

View > Reload This Page

Safari

View > Reload Page

Internet Explorer

View > Refresh

Setting Home Page: If you would like your browser to open always to rvuuf.org, see Set Home page in Browser

PDF support -- via Adobe (Acrobat) Reader; or Mac OS X Preview -- is required to view the Newsletter and many other documents. You can usually view the PDF directly in your web browser, and optionally, download* it for later. On the iPad, besides viewing PDFs directly in the Safari web browser, you can download the file to read later in GoodReader, Apple iBooks or other viewer apps.

.doc: forms may be made available in Microsoft Word format (in addition to PDF) so that information can be typed into the document before printing or emailing. Note: we do not recommend the use of ".docx" (an incompatible and proprietary format; older versions/systems require a conversion tool which may not completely preserve layout and formatting, or a software upgrade which is expensive and confusing).

JavaScript support is required for much of this web site, including viewing of Slideshows.

Cookies should not be required in general, though they may be needed for those with rvuuf.org accounts.

Audio. No special audio support should be needed to listen to sermons (via our embedded player) in your browser. However, if you download* files for later listening, you will need appropriate player software on your computer.

Flash. We do not use Adobe Flash on this site due to security and compatibility concerns.

Video. If we provide video capability in the future, it is highly likely that we will use standard technology such as HTML5.

Java support is required for interactive crossword puzzles.
(if Java is not installed/supported/desired, puzzles are also available in PDF and .puz formats.)

*Downloading files: right-click the file link (ctrl-click for Mac users) to display a pop-up menu containing a Save/Download command:

Firefox & Chrome

Safari

Internet Explorer

EPUB is an open electronic publishing (e-book) format. In the future, rvuuf.org may offer documents in this format for use on the iPad, smartphones, eReaders, and other tablets and devices.
