About a year ago I received a newsletter with an article title "National Contractor's Liscense". The article stated that in the coming year or so their would be a unified exam given to qualified individuals, that the main 48 states would recognize. Anyway I lost the article, and just wondering if anybody else has heard of this.

Thanx, SCJohn

scjohn-

I have information from the National Board of Electrical Examiners (NBEE) from the year 1991. Mike Forister was and perhaps still is Chairman. I hold Certification number 100107 as a Master Electrician. I believe the intent back then was to have a National registry of Jounneyman and Master Electricians.

The "http" part is being truncated.

Bjarney, you are right. I give up. The only way to open image is to type in address: www.geocities.com/cinkerf/NationalCertification.jpg

I'll try uploading images to my ECN web page in the future. Perhaps that may work better.

Frank,

I think that generally the FREE Websites will not let someone access an image or file itself in this manner without it being on a page. It may have something to do with them not being able to display an ad.

I am not sure if you would make out better with an ECN Free Web either. ECN has no direct control over things like that as the Free Webs & Software are part of a service that was obtained for ECN patrons and is basically under the control of that provider.

Bjarney-

I did what Bill suggested. I placed the scanned document on one of my web pages. Previously I just uploaded to my web site file manager. I'm learning little by little.

Frank,

Glad you got it.

I think that the reasoning is that the FREE Web providers don't want someone just using their space for storage of files. The Server space and software cost them money and they want to be able to recoup some through sales of Banner Ads that pop-up (very annoying) or appear on the pages.

No FREE Lunch there!

If you really want something to show up in a thread you can always send it to me and I will upload it to ECN servers and post it for you or give you the url to use.
