What browser are you using Chrisbee? I am using Chrome with no problems with scrolling. The only things I have noticed, of which you may or not be able to fix 94Z28. After completion of one quote, you click on 'Get Started' and nothing happens. You have to refresh the page. The other thing is you have a roll-over text that looks slightly out of place when it floats at the left hand edge of the page.
As for IE, the scrolling issue is also present. I hope this helps.

IE always has issues with responsive layouts. Maybe I will remove the responsiveness and animations soon to make it work better who knows. I am not sure why you are seeing the "float-over text titles" over to the left side as I am seeing them in the box they are supposed to be in... will look into it in developers mode. I've been tinkering with it this morning.
Lol, someone actually voted no.

I'll test it for you again once you've done if you'd like.

Modified the responsiveness of the page, as well as fixed scrolling error I seen for apple devices. It should also show a "back to top" button as well.
For the quoting process, it should not be stuck at the end now, and it will transfer you back to homepage instead of you having to click refresh. I may change the setup of this to a "pop-up" until I can get the theme width corrected.

Cool, I'm on a mobile browser at the moment. I'll check it out for you tomorrow on a desktop.

Updates for Custom Host + Heatsink and more diodes added tonight as well as coding clean-ups. If you have any issues with the Quote page, there is a link above it to open in a new window. I have had 100% success with the "New Window" version outside of the responsive template.
Enjoy! More suggestions welcome.
//edit - For a custom selection, it's worth 10$ you just add quantity until your close to the price of the host. I may change this later for a type-in.
//2nd edit - sorry for arrangement of diodes, will straighten those out by wavelength later.

Yeah I was using IE at work. Chrome on my phone was working. The scroll bar seems to be fine now either way.

Mine was acting screwy this morning, until I opened it in Chrome. I think Internet Explorer still acts up, but that's on its way out so it might not be worth fixing if it's too much trouble.
What's really great is that if you own machine tools the custom heatsink and the host will actually be $10 each. That's a really fun tool!

Trust me I wish
even with the thousands of dollars of equipment the material, buttons, wiring, contact board and other misc add up very quickly. Not to mention how long it takes for just one Anyway great work 94Z28, the tool looks to be coming along great!

Hi 94Z28, it seems to be working better for me on Chrome. I like the tweaks you have made to the tool.
Nice job.

I found some of the prices inflated, as if you bought all your parts from DRT, one would not have to pay these inflated prices for individual parts. ie: shipping and costs of optics are reduced, many of the hosts can be had for less also. If you buy parts from sources that you've used in the past for drivers and optics, the prices can be quite a bit less. I guess you were trying to show the uninitiated what the high side of the cost could be. If that is the case, it is a good app for people to expect to pay $$$$ for a laser. I think it would have to be update constantly as prices change all the time, too.

Yes Paul, this was the point to show someone that may be curious what it could cost them to purchase all these parts. The price increase you are seeing is because I added roughly 5$ shipping to parts that would be separate from different vendors. I may have them a little off still, as I said it's beta stages but it can't be THAT far off of what the build would cost currently unless you use the "Budget No-Diode Bundle" from survival instead of piecing it together which would save you some money.
Glad some of you like it, and I don't mind the honesty you will not offend me as I said the boredom got the best of me and I decided to try something out.
