Bloms website
 
Is anyone else having trouble ordering via Bloms website? It seems
extraordinary that there's no search function either for names or
catalogue numbers. And the list of plants is incomplete. I tried to
order things that are in their printed catalogue but which simply are
not there on the website. Eventually I had to order by email.

What's going on there?

I found this for Mr Fothergills but other people have said they have had
no trouble at all so maybe there was a glitch in both situations?

There's still a few sites around which require IE to run, and won't give full functionality on other browsers.

If you're using FireFox there is an add-on called IE Tab 2 if you install it into FF then all you need to do if a site doesn't render properly is to click on an Icon at tje bottom of the page and it will switch to using the Internet Explorer engine but still within the FF page, very useful it is too.

That sounds ideal! Thanks so much, Kay.

Why not use IE directly?


In Linux?
