Remarks But No Virtual Tours for Carolina MLS

The CMLS, on May 24th, approved the use of two new fields in their North Carolina MLS. The two were remarks and virtual tour URL's. In an effort to prevent browsers of the listings from unintentionally visiting the listing agent's site by way of the virtual tour URL, they insisted on a routine of having the virtual tours open in a new window with the address bar disabled. Not long afterwards they discovered that Microsoft was not going to make their job easy and has removed the ability to disable the address bar in their new browser, Internet Explorer 7, in a attempt to prevent malicious content and phishing. So, until such time as CMLS finds a workaround, their listings will only have added a remarks field.
