Hey Jeremy,

They do not show up when using the arrow keys to navigate. Is this a pop-out form? Meaning: Is the form only displayed when the mouse pointer is directly over the form area after clicking the link?

It 's not going very fast but there has been progress. Just to update everybody, here's what's on the new portal so far.
>>> The site has moved to a faster server with better access to the database. The new location is https://web-tpa.allstarlink.org/ <https://web-tpa.allstarlink.org/>.
>>> It has a much better nodes list over the original. It has sort, filter, pagination and links to the stats pages. 
>>> There a new sign up page to register with AllStar. It has a much friendlier form and should assure more accurate input.
>>> There is a password reset page. BTW, your login and password are the same as on the original allstarlink site as it's accessing the same database.  
>>> A new feature the original site doesn't have to change your callsign. This is much easier for you as well as admins which should get these completed faster. If you request a callsign change by email (the old way) you'll probably be asked to use the new site for your request. 
>>> All of the normal admin functions have been performed on this site for nearly a year. You won't see these unless you are an admin.
>>> Works much better on mobile devices using 'mobile first' coding methods. 
>>> Secure login Cookie with longer expiration.
>>> No more Flash. Yeah!
>>> Please use this new site when you can. We think you'll really like the new nodes list. Let us know if you find any bugs, typos, spelling errors, unclear wording, etc. You could even let us know if you like it :-)
>>> 
>>> PS. The site is coded in HTML 5 using Twitter Bootstrap, jQuery, pdo, jwt and other web developer geek alphabet soup. 
>>> 
>>> PPS. Don't forget we have a new WiKi as well https://wiki.allstarlink.org/ <https://wiki.allstarlink.org/wiki/Main_Page>
