Well, Rob and Hen, this is my progress: I have been trying a number of websites ( all newspapers) and in the Pref. in Safari I had unchecked the button where it says under auto-fill using info from my address book. I was going to uncheck all of them,each one at a time. Now the Wash. Post's filler-upper still told me (javascript ) the e-mail addr. was invalid, but then came another webpage telling me I am subscribed with this same e-mail. So I closed up, opened up and it worked, shows up in my keychain now, also. BBC news as such have always been ok, but getting special e-mails went like this : invalid e-mail address, but with it came an e-mail to that same address in my mail ( simultaneously) telling me to finish up the third step, namely clicking on the given url to really signe me up, wich I did and then things went ok. So i am still a little dizzy from these new possibilities, after I get through with all this, I shall then have to unsubscribe to all of these e-mail news I have subscribed to, just to figure this out. Ih ave come to believe there is a failure between this Java pulldown menu and its Safari connection. Sometimes now I also get a message that I cannot access a website, while the website appears anyhow. Another angle , though connected as i see it.
