I've now discovered what it is: the review of the SX200 includes 
animated - well, video, really - shots of menus in action. One 
example is the window beneath the two lines of text starting 'While 
I'll cover the SX200's macro abilities later in the review,'.

I'm now using my laptop, which runs Vista Home Premium with all 
updates etc. On this machine, the page in question opened fine, but 
instead of crashing Opera as it does on my desktop, it simply showed 
me blank windows with the legend 'Plug-in content'. Mousing over this 
brought up an Opera message saying I needed a plug-in, but clicking 
on it as advised by the same message failed to do any good as 'the 
search failed to find any matches', or words to that effect.

I have a memory like a sieve, so I can't remember (it was only a few 
mi\nutes ago...) whether I went to the QuickTime site off my own bat 
or whether a message came up telling me to download QT. Anyway, that 
is what I did and I now have QT 7.6.etc whereas before I had 7.4.etc, 
downloaded over a year ago.

So now it works! I can hardly wait to try this out on my desktop, but 
wait is precisely what I am going to have to do because I am away 
from home for the next ten days or so and I don't want anyone else 
doing it for me so that I can't see exactly what happens!

I'm glad I was right about there being some difference between the 
two pages! :-)

Cheers all,

Harry
