I have to add my voice to this....we're not allowed to download IE
<improvements> without SysOp permission, and after some minor and some very
major hassles with things that were supposed to make IE better making things
a lot worse we just don't bother......I don't get Flash, I don't get Java,
and you're right about size...it's OK at 1280x1024, but not good with
anything smaller.....

What's wrong with straight HTML for this knida thing....all it needs is a
list of circuit subsets and they need lists of circuits......Have a look at
the EFM site for an exmple of how it should be done (or at least the old
one, I haven't been there for a while....
