Hello John,

    I will also respond in an interleaved manner.

    When logging in as a user (not a Matchmaker), I would 
type in my user name, then I would press the tab key to jump 
to the bar where I have to type my password.  Nothing 
happens at all, period.  Only when I place my mouse on the 
bar and click the left mouse button, can I then type in my 
password.  I do not have this problem with IE nor with Firefox.

     Understood, and, I do not expect you to be able to 
check it out unless you got permission from that site to do 
a test.

    At one time everything at that site went fine.  I 
believe it was starting with version 9.0, or even 8.x that I 
first found things going crazy at the site.  9.5.1 seems to 
have cleared up most, in that the pages initially look the 
same as with IE and Firefox, and the links work the same 
way.  The problem happens once one thing goes wrong, then 
even those things which went well, no longer go well.

    Sorry if I am sounding convoluted.  I wish I could 
reproduce the problem for you, but I do not know how.

    Thanks anyway.

                               Regards,

                               Julian.
