You'd think the software behind the bug-tracker could simply ignore the "#" if people type it in this box. It would seem natural enough for a user to type it, since "#" is shown loud&clear in the Netsurf info box as part of the version number. Hits on the same pet peeve as websites that throw hissyfits if you type a credit-card number exactly as shown on the card with the spaces that make it human-readable and human-checkable. Ditto phone numbers. -- Jim Nagel www.archivemag.co.uk || See you at the SW show? March 1 www.riscos-swshow.co.uk
