It's back now less some recent updates, so that's ok. Thanks to hard-working admins. However the other issue of not being able to find any 'submit' button on my older browser after entering text persisted today, so I thought I'd try switching to 'no style' in its View menu, to see that an additional 'FreeBSD' style had appeared, which was news to me. Once I selected 'Classic' (ie usual) style, good ol' blue boxes with white text appeared in various places on the page, 'Search', 'Save Changes' etc. I'd rather not subscribe to freebsd-www to post one message, so perhaps Warren or others who are across website issues might pass this along? With the 'FreeBSD' style a box that is _very_ slightly noticeable - once you know it's there - in very light grey with no discernable variation that would indicate the presence of any text, is all that shows on mine. Sure it's an old browser, but this to me is a totally unfamiliar issue. cheers, Ian (please cc me on any response)
