I just tried the new "newspapers" made available, and it just hung there. I tried it in Chrome and it downloaded immediately.
It's only that site. Before I'd also try to save rather than open, and it still would just sit there. I'll have to figure out why that site I have problems with Firefox. So I have it bookmarked now on Chrome. I was trying to access that site last month while trying to get statistics (Hawaii's population) from some of their almanacs there. :) Kalani On Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at 7:09:53 AM UTC-8, Cheri Mello wrote: > > Kalani, > > They are also on the UMass Portuguese American Newspaper web site.
