I have this exact same frustration with Washington Mutual's ATMs. There are two screens that are nearly identical in their content and almost always get me confused. "Didn't I already answer this question?!?!? Oh... It's different." Definitely in the case of Washington Mutual and probably yours as well, this can be fixed with some better copy and visual cues (not a fake reload though!). If the two screens are so similar that people might get confused then the application is probably more difficult to use than it should be. The page flicker is not what's causing the confusion, the content is. My .02 Chris. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
