I Agree, 

Before it does suddenly stop, does anyone fancy \ have the skills to
port the list to another host or server.

I don't know about everyone else, but I'd be happy to make a small
donation to the running costs of a revived service, as this list has
helped me out of a jam on many an occasion.

Ditto. This list is/has been terrific.

Irv - good suggestion - that kinda worked but I'd prolly not got it 
quite right and broke something else in the project. But in the 
process of moving things around I ended up with a new order in my 
original handler.

Original was....

   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member = member(gCurrentBodyText,
"BodyText")
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.scrolltop = 0
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.width = 300
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.height = 525
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.boxType = #fixed

And that became...

   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member = member(gCurrentBodyText,
"BodyText")
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.scrolltop = 0
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.boxType = #fixed
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.width = 400
   sprite("ScrollingSprite").member.height = 525

So as I read it fixing the boxtype before setting the pixel 
dimensions has solved the issue. Either that or changing the box 
width did some magic :-)

Any clues as to why?
