When it stops letting me input text in a field or I get to a field that it won't accept input for, it seems that a mix or combination of minimizing and then bringing back up the application or simply changing tabs and then coming back seems to fix the problem and I can keep going (no reload of the page required or anything like that). In Galeon, input fields sometimes behave strangely and double-clicking in the entry field or highlighting some of the text after clicking in the field seems to help, in strange combinations with the above mentioned suggestions. I figured I was in the minority with the problem though and was hoping future releases would fix the problem. HTH, Jacob P.S. Mozilla and Galeon versions are the latest from Woody. ----- GnuPG Key: 1024D/16377135 In a world without fences, who needs Gates? http://www.linux.org/
