Access to Urbans Color Reference

Inlägg av edgemitchell »

Hello everyone,

Apologies for posting in English, but it's all I know!

I cannot access the Urban's Color Reference Charts color samples anymore. When I click on a color sample link, I get the following message:

"You don't have permission to access /showcolor.asp on this server."

Never had a problem in the past...I maintain the Flying Aces Club website (www.flyingacesclub.com) in the U.S. and have a link to the color charts posted there as reference for free-flight scale modeling. The link takes me to the site, but again, I can't access the color samples.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

David Mitchell

Hi David,
The links to the colourchips go to somewhere inside
http://colorserver.net/
and maybe they have changed their setup
FS 34127 is this link today http://colorserver.net/?s=34127&size=m&bkgr=
or
http://colorserver.net/?s=34127 to the whole page
but the link from Urbans chart is
http://www.colorserver.net/showcolor.asp?fs=34127

Maybe Urbans charts need a little update .....

/ Robin (who doesn't have editing access to Urbans charts ...)

It looks as if colorsever.net has changed the query syntax,
or Martin has just removed the old method of doing the calls.

The colour pages page were directly copied from our old site then we started the current some years ago.

Its a lot of HTML (or links) to change manually.
Will see if I can get someone to do a conversion script.

We will sort it out, but it may take a while.

Thanks for the notification.

It seems that FS34087 seems to be missing in colorserver though , but I dont think thats an important colour anyway.
