Fantc Update to version 1.2

Hi All,

I've updated Fantc with some minor changes bringing Fantc to version 1.2. 
I've listed these minor updates below:
http://www.classictesla-dot-com/fantc/fantc.html

Take care,
Bart

The updates include:

1) Arranged validation in J_utility.js for bailout faults occurring due to 
single turn inductance validation. The inductance analysis worked ok for 
this demo or similar    inputs, but should the user try to run capacitance 
or resonance analysis with the same inputs, Fantc missed the faulty inputs 
for those analysis types. Browsers may    also lock up (IE6 did) on 
bailout. Bailout is a condition where the core Geotc code cannot resolve, 
typically due to the conditions or inputs given. That's why it's important 
to validate inputs prior to Geotc getting a hold of them. There were a 
couple other conditions that caused a bailout based that were found and are 
now validated. Faulty inputs are either missing or impossible to physically 
exist. These have been fixed by individualizing what was previously shared 
validation between analysis types.

2) When inputs were found incorrect or missing, Fantc may pop up several 
alerts, one after the other. J_utility.js has been updated to return 
following the first alert.

3) Text has been added to better explain the capacitance's and inductance's 
which are an output of the Resonance Analysis (Cee, Lee, Cdc, Ldc, Ces, 
Les). This will probably be updated further to add detail and to further 
explain the VI profile data.

4) J_test.js has been updated to explain the comparison value which is 
written at the top of the output window following the selection of a demo 
analysis.

5) Due to the way Geotc uses contributions of filament circular rings for 
inductance's, turns less than 1 are meaningless. Fantc now validates for 1 
or more turns on both secondary and primary inputs so those that may try to 
run partial loops less than 1 are not given erroneous outputs.

6) More information to the likely cause of an alert was added to a few of 
the the alerts dialogs.

7) Increased decimals further out for instances of coils needing to show 
slight change or coils which have small values. In most cases, this isn't 
needed, but there may be a few geometry's where this increase may be helpful.
