Intrestingly, (or not)
No problem with links that go to a second line,
thanks for the tip on going to the left of the hot link
to start to highlight... although there really is minimal
difference between hitting reply and then highlighting
the no longer "hot" link. I've tried to copy and paste
it frequently but my control over my mouse sometimes
messes me up.
When I first clicked on Jack's redtail I got a blank white screen... not
an error. He's not on flicker, tho.
I call the screen with the the subject lines/sender/date etc the
Index screen - as opposed to a table of contents. Have no idea what
techies who develop these things named it.
Walt just wrote elsewhere that the same thing happened to him and
we both concluded temporary glitch, although I came close to being
annoyed enough to "out" it. :-)
Of course now I can't make the error happen again regard the hot links
but then there are not any new PESO's to behold right now

Fellow Thunderbird users...
Lately I've been having difficulty getting your images to appear if
you are on
Flicker or Photo.net when I click on the hot link in Thunderbird.
With Flick, it's very very slow and with photo.net it simply shows me
a blank
screen unless I pretend to reply, then copy and paste the hot link
into the address box in firefox. (and I'm up to the latest firefox
version)
can you point to a specific example (e.g. by the subject of the email)?
slow loading has nothing to do with Thunderbird; and you might find it
quicker to copy and paste a link directly from the original email,
without "pretending to reply"; the trick is to select the URL from its
edge to avoid the click activating it
the only part of this that may be controlled by Thunderbird is
recognizing the link; links that extend over more than one line may
break, especially if the sender's email doesn't use the "format=flowed"
option; you can usually recognize this when Thunderbird doesn't
highlight the entire URL, and you can also test by clicking the URL and
seeing if the browser shows the entire URL as it came in the email, or a
truncated version
i have not noticed any photo.net nor flickr URLs that were broken this
way lately
Any ideas? I'm thinking it is THunderbird that is causing the
problems as
recently there was a weird problem that cleared up after a few days on
its own
- to wit - everytime I opened my index page it showed up
in two windows and if I tried to close one it closed both.
i don't know what you mean by index page, but this does not sound
related and is not familiar to me; i use Thunderbird on OS X, however
