Royal Navy Escort Carriers web site relaunched April 2017
« on: 24 April 2017 09:01:31 pm »

This is a forum wide notification, apologies if the content of this message is not relevant to your interests.

The Royal Navy Escort Carriers site has received some major upgrades: the templates have been redesigned for better layout accessibility. Several new sections and pages have been added, including information on the building of the ships, and the modification work carried out in Canada. You can now view tables showing the ships in several different breakdowns including by sorted UK or US built by date commissioned, US built by US Navy designatrion. These tables also list significant dates in the construction process.

 Individual Ship's badges and battle honours have been updated and two new pages explain the ship’s badge and the award and display of Battle honours for RN ships and air squadrons.

New features added: roll-over text provides additional information in tool tip type pop-out boxes for in text notes and item descriptions, audio descriptions for the specification section of all ship histories, full audio description of ship histories being rolled out in stages.

A number of histories and galleries have been updated; many now include active links to other pages on the RNRA web sites to help readers find associated articles and histories.
