Hi again. thanks for the tip mate, I will do that later today..got a busy day so can't get PC'ing until tonight..hehe One thing I just noted though that is even more annoying (because it makes the error totally random or so it seems and that's always a harder thing to diagnose..groan!) I opened up FF there with about 20 tabs open(as is usual) and I immediately tried bookmarking the page I had open..it is an asian page but is in English, just mentioning it as it seems to be one of the few things that differentiates this page from the other tabs. anyway I pressed the star and not a thing happened. Yet, changing to a different tab and trying to bookmark one of those pages, all fine! I don't get it. It seems like its now just some tabs that will not bookmark. I tried all the possible ways of bookmarking the site in question...the add to bookmarks context menu, no bookmarks editor appeared, I tried in the bookmarks menu, the 'bookmark this page' entry..still nothing happened. Then I spotted a javascript link on the site, you know the usual 'bookmark this site!' kind of thing. Amazingly, when I clicked that up popped an add to bookmarks dialogue. It was a slightly smaller version of the usual bookmarks editor that appears when you click the star. so I have concluded that it is certain sites. I don't know if it also related to maybe the fact that a site has already been opened in a tab for a while and is somehow stuck in some sort of error that won't correct itself. New tabs opening seem to all bookmark fine but I can close and restart FF a hundred times but this site I am talking of will not bookmatrk. I sincerely doubt that the actual site is the problem here but, just in case...anyone want to have a try and let me know...its http://www.asiaplatetv.com/aptv_others.htm OK I have to go for now but thanks again and hopefully I will have something to report on this later. Cheers,
