[smokeping-users] Unable to click-drag to zoom

Sun Dec 2 12:58:55 CET 2012

Hi Matt,

have a look at the html template you are using, it might be that
the cropper.js file does not get loaded ... the path must be
correct for it to load, and it must not reside inside the cgi-bin
directory as this would cause the webserver to try to execute the
code.

cheers
