Revamping our on-line calculators

Along with the general move to freshen up the site, we've redone virtually all of our JavaScript calculators to make use of the object literal format, to avoid namespace collisions with other JavaScript elements on our pages.

This in turn has allowed us more easily to combine related tools so they appear on one page, such as the four tension tools (constant-pull to lockout converter, lockout to constant-pull converter, pounds to kilos converter, and the tension estimator) and the two twist weight tools (the calculator and the estimator). The pages for these tools also have a nice tabbed interface for selecting your calculator of interest.

As always, of course, these on-line calculators are available to USRSA members only. If you're not a member, join today!
