No Ron - you are missing my point (sorry if I was unclear). I think that webpages are an important selling feature and that being said, they should work as customers expect or would like them to.
I think sometimes the various companies are in such a competition of sorts to get features added or improved (and I guess the customer base is encouraged to demand that) that sometimes the usefulness factor decreases or there is so much going on that improvements don't get made. Some features are treated a little like orphans once they are put into the program. Now it is up to the customer base to let the company know what we want and what doesn't work. But it is concerning to hear that something that does not work right or well, does not get fixed over a long period of time. "Bells and whistles" as I used it refers to plugging something as a selling point and then not providing it or providing less than what was promised - something that sounds good, is new and bright and shiny, but does not live up to hype (or does not live up to it over time - I don't expect perfection). Is that clearer or still a bit muddy? For the record, I think if there is a feature in a program, it should work. If it does not work it should be fixed or removed. I am a person who wants all the parts to work and play nicely together.
