160200 2003-07-16 02:26:00 I visit a lot of sites that have drop down boxes,
make a selection from the list & you are automatically redirected to the page or the info required appears in the frame.
But over the last couple of days it hasn't been working.
I can type into a box hit enter & everything goes ok, but anything with a dropdown list the page just sits there doing nothing.
This happens on all the sites I visit so the problem must be on my side.
I had a rather vigorous cleanup the other day so it could be as a result of that.
I've reinstalled IE6 (on XP Pro) checked security setting etc but still no luck.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks

160201 2003-07-16 03:14:00 Set IE back to default setting to enable Javascript.

In Internet Explorer go to Tools\Internet Options

1/ On the General tab press "Delete Files" then tick "Delete All Offline
Content" then press "OK"..
2/ On the Security tab press "Default Level" then press "Apply"
3/ On the Privacy tab press "Default" then press "Apply"
4/ On the Advanced tab press "Restore Defaults" then press "Apply" then "OK".

160205 2003-07-16 04:58:00 Thanks guys still no luck
Could either of you visit this site & in the middle of the page there is a "Daily video Tip Section" and there is a name of a video tip to download, I can download the movie but I can't see what it is called.
Can either of you see it?
When I log into the site with my member info there is a drop down list of hundreds of movies for me to download but I can't see or download any of them whereas 2 days ago I could.

Thanks

160207 2003-07-16 05:02:00 If you click on the Daily Video Link you are directed to another page with the option of downloading the movie or playing it in Media Player which will appear.
I am redirected to the page but have neither option, do any of you get it?

160208 2003-07-16 05:30:00 I do not have anything under Daily Video Link to click on Jim B (153)
160209 2003-07-16 05:36:00 Thanks Jim B, maybe the site has a problem at the moment, just seems odd that it's happening on another one as well
May be a coincidence.
Thanks
