Sometimes when I use the lookup button for a word, the little screen just disappears and no new page appears.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Any suggestions? :(

I’ve noticed it playing hide-and-seek with my cursor but assumed it must be something with the browser that I don’t feel like troubleshooting.  I get around it by clicking on the window’s button on the Task Bar to bring it back to the foreground, then slowly moving the cursor up.  Even better is to click on the link and then position the cursor in the area where the window will pop up so it will be there when the window opens.

Of course, it’s not misbehaving for me tonight.  Maybe the browser made a New Year’s resolution to behave for a change.

Yes, I’ve had that happen too; I just maximize the page when that happens and it stays.

This problem is different—it just doesn’t show up.  Sometimes it says "Done" and sometimes it says "Error on page."

Anyone? ???

Sounds like a problem with a script.  Did it work before?  If so, have you changed any browser settings?

Not that I know of (though that’s not a straight "no") hmmm

I rebooted my computer and now it’s working.  I guess I can always resort to that.  

Thanks!
