Well, Grant, that procedure of yours fixed it: I now have no more light bulbs at all, not even in the legend at the bottom, just an empty column, narrower than usual. Nothing more to complain about, except it still won't remember my ID and pw. Oh well...

sighhhh....
Not remembering un/pw - gee I thought that was just me... because I DON'T tell it to remember me.
As for the light bulbs, do the shift refresh trick again. They should show now. I reuploaded them in order to give them a new file date, so a forced refresh should work.
Perhaps there is a bug in the software - what am I saying OF COURSE there's a bug - probably hundreds - but they haven't given us grief until now, it's been running well for years. Could be a date related bug, who knows.
We are looking at new software for the HUBB, and hope to get it in this summer.

Grant -
if it makes you feel better - all it AOK on my laptop. The bulbs are all as they should be in relation to my last visit. I have no idea if this makes any difference but I use a Apple Mac.

Oh good, that's what I wanted to hear!
At least someone has it good.
Could be the code is incompatible with Windows systems, but unlikely, since it worked in the past.
Could be a bug in IE for Windows, or who knows. But if it's working correctly somewhere, it's not the server. Whew! I'm off the hook for now. 
Thanks Chris!
Sorry guys if yours isn't working correctly, I don't know what else to suggest.

Well, I can report that at least the disappeared bulbs have got something to do with my PC at work, as I have bulbs at home. My work PC is "secured" by the admins :-(
However, even at home all bulbs are yellow. Reload, etc. didn't make any difference.
Doesn't matter, it's the content that matters. THAT is of the highest quality!
Thanks.

The light bulbs are back and working and my login and password are now remembered.
Grant, you are a champion!

Thanks Peter!
Every once in a while I fix a piece of code and it actually works!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
