This is my third attempt to get help with this bug issue in Seamonkey.
Who is it that actually writes these update codes in an "attempt" to improve
it, but sometimes just makes things worse? They are the ones I need to
respond, please, and thank you. I will repeat the description of the bug issue
below.
{When I try to access a secure page, which requires a user name and password, I
only get a partial page. There is a data entry bar for the user name, but
nothing else; not even a button for executing the entry, or "continuing", or
"next" or anything.
I can't proceed any further at all. With no password option, I can't access my
online financial accounts. Seamonkey is now useless to me and I will have to
change to another browser. This means all my bookmarks will have to be
re-established in another browser; very time consuming; not to mention some web
sites will not recognize the new browser, and I will have to wade through all
kinds of procedure to get everything back.}
Tim
