Had the same problem as yourself, I am running OS X 10.3.5.
Repairing permissions did not solve it so I ran Cocktail 3.4.9 and
went to the Pilot tab and ticked all the tasks that are listed,
once it was completed and the system restarted all was well again.

 Hi

 Every time I open the help viewer, it starts up but then immediately
 crashes (OS10.3).  I have repaired the disk and also rebuilt the
 directories using Disk Warrior, but that has not helped.  Just
 wondering if anyone knows what the next step should be (system
 reinstall - or can you somehow replace individual programs)?

 Thanks

Just plugged the js string in again on a few more  pages and it 
**does** return the info.

Thanks. :-)
The pages I was querying yesterday were returning a blank js drop-down 
(I love the way the js announcements all hang down discreetly from the 
menu  bar btw) - which made me think Safari wasn't passing it on.  
Just chance they were all without the info anyway.
I've been resisting getting Firefix because I want to make sure I 
**really** need anything not in the mac bundle.I've been a Mozilla 
user since around Phoenix 0.5 and am very pleased to leave all the 
message boards and bug reports behind  me for a while :-)

Does anyone have the time to show me the command for showing the 
'last modified' details of a web page while using Safari?
I used a javascript:alert string in the address window of Firefox 
for such info when I ran it on the xp box.

Have fun,

Howdy,

I am new to the list and have been lurking and learning for a few days.
I live in Harvey and have recently retired from a gardening business.
I am 54 and still feel around 18 :-)
I am a refugee from the broken windoze neighbourhood.  Just got sick of 
all the having to be careful stepping around broken glass.



You see, I fled to os x because I want a UI which will free me from the

Hi Nancy

Great to hear such sentiment!

I can't help you with Safari but I'm sure someone will have a go:)


Cheers

Keyboard Shortcut

[Peter Sealy]

Has anyone been able to write a Keyboard Shortcut using System 
Prefs>Keyboard & Mouse>Keyboard Shortcuts? I click on the plus sign to 
make a new shortcut, select an application or All Applications, write 
the Menu Title exactly but no keystroke will be accepted in the 
Keyboard Shortcut box. Doesn't matter which application I try, or All, 
whether the application is running or not, whether the Turn On Full 
Keyboard Access is checked or not, and which keystroke, nothing will be 
accepted in that box.


Obviously I am doing something wrong. Any ideas?

Try here for some advice . 
I have not had the problem you describe but it has been several times 
discussed on the Apple Support Discussion Boards and the advice offered 
in that web site has been recommended. You have not identified which 
version of 10.3 you are running but if it is pre-10.3.5 I would 
recommend an update to the latest as I think that does resolve problems 
with the Help Viewer. If you still can not fix it contact me and I have 
a couple more solutions which I have saved which may assist.
