Trouble at t'Mill?
Earlier today my link here:
http://dtpfor.com/bb would not go through with the typical polite message from Microsoft that maybe I was not connected to the internet etc. I then tried the basic link: http://dtpfor.com and it went through OK but none of the links on that page to individual forums worked ... Now it's OK -- well, it did refuse to respond after I read your reply and Grocho's in the first Adobe thread when I clicked on the thread you started in reply to me. But repeated clickings eventually got me through to the messages. Just in case you needed to know. __________________ Hugh |

FWIW, I couldn't get through at all this AM. Reset routers/DSL modems here. No change and other sites came up in blip or two.
Now I can get through (obviously ... assuming you're seeing this, that is) but I keep having to reload pages to get them to appear. __________________ Steve Rindsberg ==================== www.pptfaq.com www.pptools.com and stuff |

It gets weirder ... I just posted a reply elsewhere and in response got this:

We have seen that once or twice before — not CSS files, but vB code of some type. Pretty sure it is a server issue; not nice in any event. Thanks. __________________ [SIZE=2][COLOR=LemonChiffon]::[/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] |

After the forum went to a new server, I had repeated problems getting pages to come up. But now, for some reason that has all stopped, and everything is as smooth as pie.
However, there is one curious problem I have with the forum. If I click on the bookmark for the forum with a voice mouse, it doesn't work. But all the other bookmark entries do. George |

I guess. Although better not to have these problems. I have reported it, and await a reply. This host is pretty good; shouldn’t take too long.
Thanks for your report. __________________ [SIZE=2][COLOR=LemonChiffon]::[/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] |

Sorry. I meant a voice controlled computer -- like using voice recognition instead of a keyboard and mouse.
By microphone I tell the computer to open bookmarks, and then to go to DTP forum, and then I say click. The hour glass comes up but nothing else happens. Any other book mark just goes to the link. I recently read a Bill Gates interview, wherein he said that within five years no one will be using a keyboard or mouse. Everything will be either voice, gesture or touch controlled. If you want relaxed hands, a voice controlled computer is great. But it makes the computer seem like a servant, so I wonder how that will change attitudes. Already I think computers have influenced world views and made people more impersonal. Oh well. George |
