Hi Barb, Everything worked fine for me. I tried the next and prev. buttons and they worked fine also. Cathy _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
I've posted several times today about problems I'm experiencing. I *believe* it's a combination of problems with my netscape having a corrupted file, of Zing upgrading and implementing new "stuff" that is incompatible with all but the most recent browser programs, and I'm sure other things too! So I can try to solve this problem, please do me a favor. Go to our photo site, and look around. Use the different functions. Start looking at the thumbnails, then use the "Next" arrows at the bottom of the photos to go to the next photo. Notice if it looks like the whole page is loading (there should be the photo, then the caption, then comments if there are any, then a place you can add comments, then some Links, then some copyright text at the bottom. Notice that on all the pages. Click on several of the thumbnails, to open the photo in it's original size in a separate window. Then, report your findings to me, along with what browser you use (and edition, also)... like Internet Exporer or Netscape or AOL. Some people have told me that they have been completely unable to view the site.. that either they can't load the original size photos, or the whole site locks up after a few pictures. This is completely unsatisfactory. If you HAVE already experienced a problem veiwing the site, PLEASE let me know,and let me know if you ever were able to access it, and then started having problems, or if you've never been able to access it without having a problem. I'm wondering if the problem started a couple of weeks ago (maybe even as long as a month ago) when they "upgraded" I'm distressed that with all the hard work we've been doing to get this photo site up and going, that now people are having difficulty accessing it. I will get to the bottom of it (I hope)... and if necessary, will find a different site to put our photos on (the thought of transferring all those photos & captions makes me shudder!!) Thank you for taking the time to help me solve this problem. Barbara
Debbie & Cathy, That's nice. I went right to the Irvin information, no problem. Thanks bunches. donna
Thank you, for the search feature...It helps so very much....you just don't know. Every time I aquire a new surname....I've had to go through every page. Had not complaints. But, it sure is easier, now. Thank you, again. Shirley

He was married to Miss Minnie Florence Johnson in 1898. Mrs. Dossey died Feb 1, 1911 and he was married to Miss Kittie Tatum in February, 1931.
