Are you having technical issues
with the Fada's displaying
correctly on this page? Does a wierd box showup instead of
the letter? I often avoid using fada's (the
gaelige accent mark above certain letters) since they
don't always display correctly on every style of computer,
across all the operating systems, and all the different
browsers. I have included the fada's on this page
out of respect to the Irish nature of this event. If you
are having problems seeing the full text in Mozilla for
instance, one option is to go under view, character encoding,
and set it to Western ( ISO-8859-1) or try toggling it to
Unicode (UTF-8). Some computer setups will require you to
change your keyboard language to "gaelige" for the
fada to display correctly. For others, you need to
download & install a celtic gaelige font on your computer.
Sorry, there's just too many "tweaks" reqd for the
array of computers to list them all here. I hope
those hints work for you.
