The zoom feature doesn't work in Firefox.




I tried IE 6, but that didn't work either.

It works in IE 6 here.



It works fine but it's a really crappy interface.

I tried, it doesn't work. It seems to be permanently depressed but it
doesn't do anything.


Drag a rectangle to zoom.

If you can make out what's within the triangle to begin with.

I'll second what Newps said; it's a really crappy interface.

Agreed. They are trying too hard to prevent you from copying their
content. IFR charts are public domain to begin with, so this is a bit
bizarre. SkyVector is much better; unfortunately it provides only VFR
charts.

Nothing is useless. It can always serve as a good example of how not to do
things.

I should have qualified that, "Useless for use in aviation."
