That makes no sense at all, but that's what happens. Odd. My Mozilla blocks popups and remembers to do so. What version are you running, on what platform? 1.4/SuSE, 1.5a/slackware 8.1. It's fairly standard that the win**** versions of netscape/mozilla have features that don't work in the linux versions. -- Cheers, Bev ================================================== ============ "Arguing on the internet is like running a race in the Special Olympics: even if you win, you're still retarded." |

Don;t even get me started on that. For some lame reason I could renew my season pass online, but could not order new ones for my wife and step-kids. I had to order those separately on the site (even though the renewal area told me I had get their's in person), then call them on the phone to get them all linked together so I can renew them together next year. For some idiotic reason I don't understand they could do it over the phone, but could not do it through email, even though I am the same person either way. They didn't ask me to verify anything they couldn't have asked through email. I just don't get it... ----------------------------------------------- Chester Bullock, Tenxible Solutions Ethical, quality website design and programming http://www.tenxible.com AIM: tenxible Yahoo: ccb247 Probably an accounting/data entry issue where their present renewal software can't accommodate the additional information for "new" not "renew" cases. Obviously costs more to have the software renewed than to maintain a toll-free phone number and clerk to handle the changes. |

Moreover, the HELP function skips over the popup-rejection feature, leading me to believe that while they left the preference in, they just didn't implement it. I was going to report it to bugzilla, but then I noted that they don't want reports on releases older than two weeks. On the other hand, x(ob)snow still works. Feh. -- Cheers, Bev ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Lottery: the closest thing we have to a tax on stupidity. |

It was only for a one-day photo and film shoot but it still happened." Never heard about it here, obviously the marketing ploy didn't work... If they don't *stay* open, then it doesn't count! That would be cheating. I remember years back when Keystone lived the big cheat by turning on their lites a couple of hours before Loveland opened. Unless they ALWAYS open at 7AM, with the lites on, it is a big fat cheat in my book. Loveland doesn't cheat. If they open for the season on a M-F, they start loading the lift at 9AM. If it is Sat-Sun, then 8:30, like they do all season long. And they *stay* open every day (barring a snow slide) until May. Now, with A-Basin in the mix this year.....Can't wait to see how this race turns out! May the best snow makers win. Sam "I *love* home made snow in October" Seiber |

In article , wrote: It IS easy to customize, it just doesn't stick. What exactly are you doing to effect the block? For Mozilla v1.0, the faq states: ------------------------ 2.4. I've heard about 'popup blocking'. How do I do this? Go to Edit | Preferences | Advanced | Scripts & Windows, and uncheck the powers you do not want to grant to web pages. Unchecking 'Open unrequested windows' blocks most unrequested popups. ------------------------- That's now in preferences/privacy & security/popup windows. In the /advanced/scripts & plugins area I only allow scripts to read and write cookies. I've done this on my Linux box running Redhat 7.1, which is old, with Mozilla v1.0.1, and it does stick around between invocations. I suspect that you've either not done the above, or you've done it, but you have a sticky user preference that is conflicting with it. I've set the preference that way. I've set it by editing prefs.js and user.js by hand when mozilla was off. It sticks in neither case, although checking the 'play a sound' and 'display an icon' boxes sometimes kicks up a badly-formed box asking me if I want to block cookies. The 'help' function skips over the popup-blocking feature, which sounds like they didn't actually get around to implementing it. See http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html#prefs for other ideas. I've been going around and around in the netscape/mozilla/unix newsgroup. Apparently I'm one of a small number for which this doesn't work. I put it down to the gypsy curse and hope that it will have dissipated by the time 1.7 rolls around. Worse problems to deal with, like trying to get X to use truetype fonts without a crash that requires a manual fsck. good luck, john Thanks, I need it. Prayers too, just in case... -- Cheers, Bev @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us.

BTW, I still haven't found anyone who knows when there might be woman's
clinic at Beaver Creek or whom I might contact. (Sven, no word yet from your suggestion.) Thanks. Varanasi Benares wrote: Does anyone know whether women's clinics at Beaver Creek have been scheduled yet and where I can get more info? Thanks |
