teacher Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 ColinOne last way to do this. 1. Open Konqueror.2. With Konqueror your active program press F9Trust me, it works!Julia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacher Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 ColinGlad that worked for you! Guess what? It works with most browsers and in all distros for Konqueror. Put that on a sticky somewhere and put it where you won't lose it!I guess that gives you 100% success for the day.Julia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamicota Posted May 23, 2004 Author Share Posted May 23, 2004 Yeah Julia Hey I EVEN "SAVED" the view profile so it is there all the time Now the only item I need to satisy is the Cutting of the Lawn or my better half will be in here for the third time to entice with more Chocky or Custard.
