A: Yes. We subscribe to The Associated Press' online news service. Visit Business, California, Entertainment, Sports, Technology, U.S., World for
the latest stories. The AP Business section also contains links to all the major stock market listings. Links to national and world stories are also found on
our main index pages (Home Page, News, Sports, etc.)
We also provide syndicated health content from Healthology and syndicated food content from Culinary.net.

From the Home Page, move your mouse over the News link and select the Local --> Archives link from the drop-down menu. On the Archives page,
you may search for a story by date or by keyword. Currently, we have stories
posted back to June 1, 2000. Archived stories are available free of charge
for the previous 7 days. Headlines and the first paragraph of stories older
than 7 days will be displayed in your searches but you must pay for access
to the complete story. Access instructions and costs are displayed when you
click on the story link.
Your page layout is all messed up in my Web browser. What's up with that?
A: Our Web site has been tested in all modern browsers on Macs running OS 9 and OS X, and on PCs running various versions of the Windows operating system. We do not guarantee the site's compatibilty with any browsers older than version 5.x of Internet Explorer and version 6.x of Netscape Navigator. Although the content will be displayed in Netscape 4.x, we no longer support that browser and urge anyone still running Netscape 4.x to upgrade or to use one of the fine browsers from the Mozilla project, such as Firefox.
We also do not design our pages to support the WebTV browser.
The site also relies heavily on JavaScript, especially to deliver advertising content. If you have disabled JavaScript, you will not enjoy the site to its full extent.

A: The daily update of Lodinews.com begins at 7 a.m. Pacific time and is usually completed by 8 a.m.
The Lodi News-Sentinel does not have a Sunday edition. Therefore, the Lodinews.com Web site is not updated with local stories on Sunday.
The News-Sentinel does not publish on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day and Christmas Day. Therefore, the Lodinews.com Web site is not updated with local stories on those holidays.
