Well, thanks to dlh for the popup tip, I'll pass that on to my wife. And thanks a bunch for your comments catweazle, you've cleared up the murk somewhat for me!

My wife is one those users who can't change horses from what she's used to. I've tried to get her on FF but she says she doesn't like it. I personally can't see why. Then when I explain that there isn't much apparent difference, she says she can't get on some of her web sites. I called her on that one and she proved me wrong. She's a teacher and she goes on to a site that offers jobs in the system she's in. She's always checking it and applying for positions that pay better, but I checked her out on that and it's true. The web site won't let you on when you are using FF.

I realize I don't know a whole lot about browsers and what they can do, never got into the technical aspects of this, just a user. But if she can't get on, then that's that. I suppose I must do something about learning more about this when I have the time and inclination.

Oh, and I still can't paste anything into one of these messages while using FF, which is the only reason I'm still using IE while on Daniweb...(I get an error that I must edit my Mozilla config file to allow this action - I can´t find the config file anywhere in the help)

Again, thanks for this discussion, it's a good one...
