Bharat Rakshak

the main site as some tweet code problem
Line: 274
Error: 'TWTR' is undefined,

script eror perhaps - src?

Both bharat-rakshak.com and www.bharat-rakshak.com are unreachable.

forums.b-r.com works.

MODS: A rather suspicious news item has appeared in the BR main site line-up.

The article is entitled "Russia ready to set up Mig Plant in India".

It is suspicious because it reads like it's 30 years old, mentioning the "Soviet Union" as if it were still in existence, and also the US F-104 fighter aircraft. It's truly outta the "Twilight Zone".

I wonder if somehow it's part of a 'Phishing" expedition.

Regardless, the article isn't worth the kilobytes needed.

Respectfully suggest pulling it from the BR site.

Thanks, RK

PS: Please also subsequently undo the outbound link, and/or kill the BR mirror page; whatever works best, obviously.

Yup.. you must read the head topic first. It is in highlighted bold and bigger font that clearly says about DC 50 year old news.

Dear all,
Sometimes I feel that we all are honest, thoughtful , so patriotic just because all we do is sit in a comfortable office/home , do some surfing and then share that information or comment on that info. I don’t say its bad.. but can we do more? I personally find few posts and most of the persons who post them as persons of morals, ethics and super intelligence.. Can we make sure the information and its analysis that’s done here reaches to many more… Can we act as an strategic think tank.. Can we do something and make things happen rather than just watch them and comment on them… CAN WE BE THE VOICE WHICH CANNOT BE IGNORED ESILY..I have few things in mind.. will post them according to the feedback I get…

I am getting the below error while accessing www.bharat-rakshak.com:

^^^ Same here....

What if BR Main site moved to a wiki format?

That could keep site updates fresher, with a ready (but vetted) pool of BR oldies to update materials. Site admins could then focus on approving changes rather than having to directly perform quite as much of the upkeep themselves.

The menu style navigation could be retained for the frontpage to provide an entrypoint for those who want to browse in general areas but dont already know exactly what they want to look up.

Jagan,

In the gallery "FILMING THE MIG-21 BISON", below links are broken:

- MiG-21 Bison Virtual Walkaround
- Bison ORP Scramble

BR homepage is not accessible. Getting the below error:

Rafale Ad looks nice on Home Page... I believe this will be first ever Advertisement on BR; are we open to more of it ?

Arre Wah!!! Rafale Ad on BR Home page. I believe this is a first.

This is a very happy and proud moment. Glad to see that slowly but surely BR is being noticed as an opinion maker in defence/security affairs.

Next steps may to create a publishing house and an offline identity. More strength to BR and respects and thanks to the pioneers and the oldies whose contributions have got us here.

Hello Mods,
I made a mistake in one of my posts and I'm not able to edit it now.
The correct name of the person I was trying to provide reference to is "Raksha Kumar".

Could you delete (or edit) the following post please?

Thanks.
Ashwin.

main site homepage showing the default server page, giving details of OS/server s/w.

added 5 mins later: its back to normal now, can i suggest not keeping default server pages it gives unnecessary details to malicious users

Cross posting from the ABM thread:

Consider the following link from the BR main site: http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/NEWS/newsrf.php?newsid=19628

What's appalling is that the Bharat Rakshak home page posts a link to this farticle, giving it more eyeballs. And this is not the first time that the BR homepage posts links to egregious news articles. I have commented about this in the BR Main Page feedback forum, but it seems to fall on deaf ears. Perhaps the pressure to keep updating the page with "fresh news" is too tempting

The main site URL i.e.,http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ is showing an apache test page from ~ 12:15 IST today. the forum url works and hence able to make this post.

I used to visit BR from almost 3 to 4 years via my mobile, and i unable to access BR via UCWeb browser (Made in China) many times. Its strange because there is no problem accessing BR from other mobile browsers and PC. Does they(UCWeb browser) blocking BR?

It looks like the BR main site is down. Chrome says that the connection is interrupted.

Since very long the main site's banner is breaking up in Google Chrome.

^^works fine for me

@12:57 PM (EST) main site down was down temporary !

Good to see IAF Platinum Jubilee Sets images.

Minor suggestions

In the main images on page http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/IAF/Galle ... oins-75Yr/

No 03 and 05 are Proof Images and not UNC Images
obviously 04 and 06 are actually UNC Images and Not proof images
This you may like to correct.

Technic of 'frosting' is applied to Proof coins. Proof coins are double struck double polished and because of frosting they have mat finish, this can be easily made out by looking at the coin or its image. Generally proof coins are 10% costlier than UNC coins. UNC coins have single strike and single mirror polish.

Regards

(Using the above quote as an example.)

Is it possible to have an icon just past "Desai wrote" (in the above example) which when selected takes us back to the original post (of Ankit Desai in this case)? So if a quoted post was say 5 pages earlier the selection of the icon (click on it) should take me right to that post 5 pages earlier.

Perhaps the icon can be a simple, small, arrow?

NRao Sir, the icon already exists. It's a small page that is orange for unread posts and white otherwise. As an example, on your post, if you were to look at the top right in the same line as the Subject, you'd see this icon.

Perhaps I am missing something, but I do not think we are on the same page. ?????

So, in your post I see nothing to take me to Ankit's post.

I should be able to go to Ankit's post in either your post (since you have his quote) or via my post (again because I have his quote). Get it?

Was only referring to the icon, not its availability within a quote. Sorry for the confusion.

Edited.. Murugan, I was mistaken.. I re-read your post and you are correct. I assumed mirror polish as proof and frosted polish as UNC.. let me fix that
