Stefan -
It is good you can use another browser, like Internet Explorer. Just use that until this can be resolved.

Regarding Firefox, does the same thing happen when you go directly to this url?

http://www.signbank.org/SignPuddle1.5/index.php?ui=8&sgn=53

Just curious...


It appears that the problem occurred on this url:

> http://www.signbank.org/SignPuddle1.5/canvas.php?


Although that may be just because at that moment you lost connection...

Val ;-)
