There ya go, see I have gotten to the point of telling these sites - I ain't gonna use IE. Example: Wife shops at Gap.com or Oldnavy.com If it doesn't work with Opera or at least Safari we don't buy there until it does. So I tell her to call them up tell them what browsers we use and that we will not use IE and if they want our business and others who do not want to use IE - they better get with the program. You'd be surprised, but in a day or two whatever was glitched works. -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key...
