 I guess no one else uses NS with LTSB, as this AM (Monday) still unusable

I only just picked up this thread, so not sure what has been said so far.

I have always used NetSurf with LTSB, and found it OK.  I haven't logged on
for a while though, since my wife normally checks the account from her
Macbook.

I just logged on to see whether there was a problem, and I obviously
haven't done so since they 'improved' it a few months ago, since it is now
pretty unhelpful.

Regards

They, LTSB changed something in recent times, whereby the old URL I've
been using for many years took me to a login page for mobile access.

Anyhow, Geoff Baxendale had the answer, and I've now changed my login URL
to the new one, and all is well.

I've sent you the full URL privately.

Cheers

 Hi Dave,

 Is it giving you the mobile site? I have just used it and that is what
 it did. Previously my saved login page was for the mobile site but after
 entering the password the rest was as normal. I have been away so my
 version of NS is r12793. Haven't tried the latest release.

 (To get to the desktop site click that link.)

Thanks Geoff, that did the trick.

I've just been clickin the same button I've been using on the first login
page for years, now suddenly the (Illegitimates) change it for mobiles.

Anyway, sorted now.
Dave

I really can't see why any sane person would want to use a mobile phone to
do anything network related.
I have a Smartphone that's got more whistles and bells than the command
deck of the USS Enterprise, but after trying out all this wb stuff when I
first got it, I've given up, the tedium of waiting for web pages to
display on a mobile phone is worse than waiting for paint to dry.

Now I just use it for (Shock horror) phoning, texts and MMS, the rest is
just a waste of my life.

Ooer! went of on one there... ;-)

I finally succumbed to a smart phone (HTC Desire) about a year ago
and have never regretted it.  Admittedly, most of my browsing on it
is done via wi-fi rather than 3G, and on the occasions I've used 3G
I've found its coverage rather patchy.  Nevertheless I'd rather have
it than not.  Occasionally it's saved me money by being able to
compare prices for stuff that we were looking at buying.

 Using a slighty older version and now, r12913 29th Sept, LTSB online

 Login and Memorable info can still be done, but thereafter only a small

 Account Overview, very strangely displayed and Mini statements, again

 Anyone else finding this the case?

 FWIW. Works perfectly okay on PC Firefox.
 JavaScript again I guess...

 How exceedingly weird.
 When I logged in to LTSB 6:15 AM ish the button was missing, when Fay
 logged in at around 7:00 AM ish, the button was still missing (We are
 using different versions of NS BTW)
 
 I've just this minute logged in again 9:18 AM and the button is back.

I wonder if the mimetype was wrong on the image and they fixed it.

Lloyds generally seems to be a good site (better than 3D Secure, that 
won't work without javascript - they might as well say we deliver by 
securicorps, but you must leave your door unlocked for them.)

Perhaps they monitor gmane automatically for any mentions of their 
site.

I see the activation button in the LloydsTSB Memorable info entry page has
vanished again when used in NS.

For those among us who use LTSB, the link is still there but it is
invisible.

Move the mouse pointer a tiny bit above and along the green bottom outline
line towards the right hand end while watching the status bar (Bottom of
NS window) and you'll see when you've found it, click as per usual on it,
and Bob's yer...
