Thanks. I captured the screenshot and uploaded it to tinypic, but I've got my screen resolution set pretty high and when I tried displaying the image with a width of 640, it was pretty useless. And I inadvertently deleted my post. I've found that I can replicate the effects locally, though. I noticed that GW doesn't have the Content-type metatag. If I create an HTML page with MS Word as: This is a 'test' of "quotes" and--dashes (note, no html/head/body/etc) It converts the -- to an emdash and the quotes to the open / close quotes. This page displays incorrectly in Firefox. If I add the content-type text/html charset iso 8859-1, it's fine. So it isn't confined to GW. If you still need screenshots, let me know.

Tamara asked for a screenshot with the ads when the problem occurs. I emailed a reply that the page is completely blank so not sure if that will help. Anyhoo, if this happens to you today and you can capture a screenshot, send it to Tamara.Amey@nbcuni.com. I'm heading out the door and since the problem may not occur while I'm online, I thought I'd recruit help.

I know he's walking on eggshells trying hard not to make anyone angry but it's a little too late for that. DH made son angry when he married me, that's it. Son never liked his parents' significant others. When his mother remarried, he used to make up stories about the new husband to my DH. She had remarried way before we did, only a month after their divorce was finalized. So, he already did it by making his son mad to the point that he left. While he lived here, my DH expected son to do his homework, act in a responsible manner, and be polite and if he didn't, there weren't any consequences; just temporary groundings of not watching TV in his room, but he'd just go to the kitchen to watch it instead and DH sat along with him watching. The boy was treated like a rockstar behaving badly in a five-star hotel. star, what do you mean by improper? I was with them or around them nearly 90 percent of the time he lived here, and other than yelling because son failed classes, didn't do homework, lied, didn't clean up after himself, etc., I don't know what he could've done to son that was so horribly awful. As far as the mother's house goes, she did lure him with material possessions. She didn't handle the news of our marriage well and went off the deepend when she found out, especially since her second marriage ended in divorce and she was forced to move to a new town. She was fine with DH having custody of son until she knew we were permanent. She started on DH's son shortly after we married by buying him everything he wanted, no rules at all, and promises of bigger and better things to come. DH has only talked to son three times since he left and the last two conversations indicate that life isn't with the mother isn't what she promised it would be. DH's son seems to be spending an increasing amount of time with the grandparents rather than his BM. I've asked DH several times to consider contempt orders, filing relief, to do something to get this straightened out, but he won't. He tells me to quit dwelling on it, he doesn't have the money to do anything, and he isn't wasting his time or resources on it. I appreciate all of your kind thoughts.

I just went and looked at the tree again to make sure i had estimated the right height and I think I have underestimated it, it could be more like 8m tall I think. The shock theory is a good one, although we have recently (as of December) had our bore reticulation automated because we planted new lawn in our back yard. The yard is getting watered regularly (every other evening). Before December our yard was a sandpit for 8 months and before that, over run with weeds and knee high grass for years! Could it be the sudden attention has sent it into shock? You might have also read my post on the Sir Walter in the back yard starting to yellow, I'm starting to think the 2 problems may be related, as they yellow spots and lillypilly are all in the same general area. I have tested the ph of the soil and it is sitting between 6 1/2 and 7, so pretty much neutral.... What a mystery we have on our hands! Ange Ange
