Netscape versions lower than 4.8 have problems . . .

Thanks to Ben, some of the viewing troubles have been identified as being unique to versions of Netscape below 4.8.

4.8 works fine. So, take advantage of the free upgrade to 4.8 - it is a much more stable version than the earlier 4.x anyway.

LinK: Netscape 4.8 dowload

The link to the food forum is bad on the main Mex Connect page, it links to forum id 6, but if you try it from the "Main Index" of the forum software, the kitchen links you to forum id 14, which works and the forum seems to be active.

You should probably bookmark the "Main Index" page instead of accessing the forums from the homepage, because this way you will know which forums have new posts and which don't.

Ps. You can get the latest Netscape from Mozilla.org. Its the same product, still owned by AOL, but it doesn't come with all the junk, and lets you block advertising and things which I think is disabled in the version branded as Netscape......

Thanks for the try. When I try to access "main Index"
the page is blank.The only way I have been able to get to a choice for a forum is by clicking "Forums" By the way, I loaded 4.8 not 8.0. Will investigate Mozilla..

We were having troubles with an incomplete importation of the old postings into the food forum. (was Forum ID 6)

I guess when the data was re-imported, the forum was re-created as forum number 14, but that wasn't noticed!!!

THANKS!

The reference pages are now all fixed.

If anyone else has troubles, please let me know!
