When I try it, I get this: assertion handle != NULL failed: file content/hlcache.c, line 271 So I don't think it's a RISC OS-specific problem. Chris

Why do you need to be anonymous? Why not create an account? It is free. Once you've got an account, logging in is easy, on condition that you can remember your account's credentials. That's just it. You have to log in every time. A while back Sourceforge used to log you in automatically using a cookie but that was discontinued and NS doesn't remember logins.

I don't remember being logged in automatically. Perhaps that's why I don't mind, yet you and Martin do. Maybe you could forget that you ever got logged in automatically, then you wouldn't feel aggrieved :-) I wonder if it's possible to add one's login credentials to a SF URL so that one double click on a hotlist entry logs one in to the SF page for reporting NS bugs?

You can do that if the site uses a Linux protected directory but not where there's a login form. What I usually do is copy the form, expand any relative links to absolute ones, change the username and password fields to hidden fields with the values set and then embed the form on my local home page so that there's just one submit button to click on. Sometimes you need to make two attempts because the site is expecting to find a cookie which isn't there the first time round. This method used to work for SourceForge but now it's giving me a 403 error, probably because they've changed the form. -- Richard Porterhttp://www.minijem.plus.com/ mailto:r...@minijem.plus.com I don't want a user experience - I just want stuff that works.
