Went to page 12. Typed in 1 and pressed go. Said I was on page 1, but I was still on page 12. Tried again but this time put in page 2 and went to page 2. Then put in 1 and this time it took me to page 1. JoJo

Jools, My tools, options, content settings are the same as yours. What is image jumping ?? Elaine

Jools

Jools Report 12 Aug 2006 14:05

Another thought. In Tools, options, content - I have load images checked but load images for the originating website only UNchecked. Could this be the difference??

Jools

Jools Report 12 Aug 2006 14:03

Me - a good yorkshire lass pay for something - never :)) I think you need to update - (mine does it automatically) - I think it's help, check for updates that you want.

I use Explorer and hubby uses Mozilla - the change to page one thing works for both of us. He is on Mozilla 1.5.06 Merry

Elaine Report 12 Aug 2006 13:54

Am on 1.0.7. Is yours a freebie version - if so might go and update to see if that helps.

Jools

Jools Report 12 Aug 2006 13:53

LOL. I'm 1.5.0.6 if that helps.

Oh Jools - I can feel the need for another bacardi and coke here!!!

Elaine - I hate to have to tell you this, but (using ancestry uk) I can get straight from image 12 to image 1 (by typing the 1 in the box and pressing enter) And I'm on FireFox. (the fact the advanced image viewer doesn't work in FF is a separate issue which annoys me to bits). Jools

am using Ancestry UK. I think it might have something to do with Mozilla as I have just realised I can get it to work on Explorer. Why its changed over the last week or so I have no idea.

Elaine

Elaine Report 12 Aug 2006 13:42

Can I ask another question - for those that it seems to be working OK for - are you using Internet Explorer as your browser and for those its not working for - are you using Mozilla Firefox. Because -. I can get it to work on Explorer (which I don´t usually use) but cant get it to work on Mozilla (which I do use!!)

It's working just fine for me. Not knowing who you were looking for I just searched on Portsea, ..with relationship ..Pauper. That got me into the records and I was able to change the number in the box to 1,.. to get the first page of workhouse records. Gwyn

Thanks Merry - will check my cookies!

It didn't work for me Elaine, it wouldn't go to page one from page twelve, only page by page.

Large B & C coming your way. Yes I´m also having problems with BMD`s - which is very frustrating when you are looking for a name from a missing quarter - where you have to select the quarter, then first letter of surname and then scroll through goodness knows how many pages to get to where you want.
