Recently tried to get rates from http://www.goalamo.com/ . Sent comment
that the site didn't work. Tried 2 weeks later.
Site still doesn't work: they require that you complete an ID form w/e-mail
address before you can get a rate quote (and no privacy statement). Using
NN3.x and NC4.x - and the Mac -- when I try to type into the form field, I
get "error beep" and nothing happens. Also, their "specials" page was about
150K long.
Here's their response -- a problem w/Netscape & Macs. Sheesh. Since when
can NN/Mac NOT READ standard HTML forms. What kind of web server/scripting
do you think they are using?
