The last thing I am aware of is 7r63. "v9" only helps on those pages
that insist on V9 even though it is still V7.

I have given up on OS/2 JAVA and Flash. I finally quite using 1.1.13
because it couldn't access my Google Picsa albums. JAVA and\or Flash
plugins cause an email scroll delay so I run the current SM without any
plugins. OS/2 is becoming more obsolete for browsing all the time.
Sites are wanting Shockwave besides JAVA and Flash. So I run the
current SM under W2K.

W4, SM 114, no plugins. I saved the page and then opened it in another
tab. The only difference I see is the adds changed, and some ad
material doesn't display because it is Flash or something.

Prepare to be confounded again.

W2K, SM 114, both "Print Monthly Schedule" or "Print Film
Descriptions." open new windows and look OK.

Don't hold your breath. It takes time and\or money.
