As per request. A room is booked at the UEA for 25th November, 2 - 6. Nelson Court B Common Room.
Which one is B? Quick rationale: we're no longer able to use the Hive because it is booked for ballroom dancing on Sundays and most other Union House venues are taken up by Ents. Nelson Court Common Rooms are no worse for unloading (their small car park is a short walk away) and are at ground level. The downside is no network, unless someone is able to plug wireless kit into tsw's office, which is almost line-of-sight... -- MJR

Would it not be fun to combine Alug with ballroom dancing? ;-) Adam -- Adam "a funny thing about regret is, that it's better to regret something you have done, than to regret something you haven't done"

This could increase the male : female ratio in the group. I know we have many people who would be quite good at this :o) /me thinks he may be able to make a meet at last! Thanks D - back to Semiconductor holes

Hi, For on line banking I use Netscape. However, tonoight it refused to log on and when I called the ''Help'' line I was told I needed to downgrade from 4.77 to anywhere between 4.08 and 4.75 - but these version apply only to the Windoze versions because they do not support Linux - bastards. SO what I need to know is what version of Linux Nescape correspond to these version of the Windoze version of Nescape. TIA Ian

There are versions of nutscrape that are in the region of <4.77 I know as I used to use them all the time until mozilla became acceptably useful. Are you having trouble getting hold of older versions of Nutscrape or is it that your bank are being fascist and checking all the http headers? If it is the former then google should be able to help to get hold of an older version of NS, if the later then you may want to give opera a try as it can IIRC fake its http responses to pretend to be anything (including M$) via a nice pointy clicky interface. I am almost 100% sure that the url is http://www.opera.com but can't be bothered to check :-) Adam -- Adam "a funny thing about regret is, that it's better to regret something you have done, than to regret something you haven't done"

Opera can impersonate IE5 pretty well and as Adam says "via a nice pointy clicky interface" so its real easy to change. It also does Netcape(Mozilla) 5.0, 4.6 or 3.0. Cheers, BJ

I used Opera 5 for a while, but during some testing on a web application, we found it did not handle post/get requests from forms correctly. The cause of these issues could be numerous, but I thought I would mention it as a note of caution as you may be using it for online banking purposes. Run some test cases first. Ashley
I did not use opera as it was said that it stores its book marks in a propriatory format and until I can Export my bookmarks to at least plain text I wont use it and have no intention of losing any book marks when I move over to Netscape/ Mozilla or even internet explorer I just checked this out and some book marks are now stored in a file called opera.adr so maybe this is an urban myth. Still I shall continue to use Netscape 4.7 and mozilla until I can upgrade my p200 making mozilla practice or get galeon to work. Regards Owen On 17-Oct-01 Ashley @ Turton wrote:
