I think it's possible the problem you're seeing is the result of a problem in your profile. This is why the request to try the page in a test profile. For example, when I browse to that page, I don't see the same problem you're seeing. The page seems to work correctly. If you try it in a test profile and don't have the problem, then you can starting looking at what in your profile may be causing the problem. > > Thanks for your help. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
