Or busy? I have managed to get to the survey using NetSurf. I even managed to complete the survey, with NetSurf. Off topic, the survey is hardly significant but having completed it details of a research forum the BBC wants to set up appear. http://www.virtualsurveysdiscussion.com/news/join-comm Back on topic, slightly. If one could get on the forum then one could agitate for open standards rather the MicoSoft-isms. Even more back on topic. One thing NetSurf did get wrong was placing the three graphics, "How to Listen" etc., over the text on the World Service page, http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/over_to_you.shtml . FireFox places them at the bottom of the page. -- David Pitt. Computing with RISC OS.
