Yep,

Checked it again and it is still a problem. Actually I can look above on the form and see it right now. It says Board: Psycho-Babble, Language: Espanol.

I'm using Internet Explorer 4.5 on an iMAC.

Thanks,

Randal

Just tried to follow up my previous post on Netscape 6 on the same computer: I get Psycho-Babble Administration, Language: English. I tried again here on Explorer 4.5 and it switches to Psycho-Babble, Language: Espanol. Really, it's not me!

Are those the first choices in each case?

Yes, that's what I get unless I change them.
(just now I had to do exactly that)

Sorry, what I meant was, you get a list of choices in each case, right? Is your default choice, the one that's presented to you initially, in each case the one that's at the top of (first in) the list?

Yes (although of course I have to actually click on the bar to see the choices farther down the list--including the "correct" one)

Can you do a "view source" and see if you can find a line in there like:

<option value="en" selected="selected">English</option>

Does it include the "selected" business? That should set the default choice. My guess is that your browser for some reason is ignoring it. Is it possible for you to try a later version of IE?

Yep, the "selected" choices are the "correct" ones. When I tried to update Explorer before, it screwed with my e-mail program in ways that I didn't like. For now, I'll either use a different computer or use Netscape on this one.

Thanks,

Randy
