My question is: Why are you reading them online instead of downloading them? Even though I have 24/7 broadband access, I still prefer download my documents then read the offline.

"full books takes ages" - not for broadband.  Most seem to be under 20MB.

The "graying" is something I hate, and is doing this more and more for sites with Firefox [FF 3.6.20 on Ubuntu-64bit]

Hi :)
If you open the manuals/guides by doing a right-click and then "open in a new
tab" then you can give it plenty of time to open.  The full books take ages to
download but the individual chapters should only take a couple of minutes.
Where the web-pages normally appear, ie inside the tab, will be grey until the
chapter/book has downloaded.


Are you using Internet Explorer or Firefox?

Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] New to Group, and so checking on Browser Plug-in

Trying to use LO 3.4.2 on Win 7 x64 and can't get browser plug-in to work --
been trying to read some of the LO manuals on line, so program/browser seems to
fail "half-way" --  screen gets half-greyed out (with white in other half of
window where od should be viewable but nothing to read!) -- thankfully pressing
back arrow enables previous page view, where document can be saved easily enough
-- not a big issue overall, compared to many others, but a pain none the less.

bw to all
