SORRY  for the inconvenience it has caused.



I was not a problem really - at first I thought it was something that I did and then I read more posts and saw that it was not just me so I was curious. I have never had a link resize my whole browser before.


Thanks for the explanation!

D76, I get "Translation Error" from your link.
I don't know what the problem could be, kimmer. Try it from Babelfish directly, after copying the URL from the original page so you can paste it into the requisite space on the Babelfish page. If it doesn't work from that, there must be something else wrong.

Not sure what browser you're using, FF has prefs for allowing scripts to move and/or change a windows size ( I have that disabled ). I also have a pref enabled that resizes a large image to fit my window size ( Advanced->General->Browsing).

I need to check, again, on the status of the extensions I use to see if they are all upgraded to work with FF 2.x. Now where's that To Do list...

The parallel to Thumper and Bambi is even more so when you read the end of the story. Apparently the young deer was ultimately to be moved to a location where it could be readied for living in the wild. The last pictures show the rabbit trying to support the deer's head as it goes under the influence of a sleep drug for transportation.

The close friends will end up separated. tears.gif

tears.gif  A German pal just sent me the condensed translation ... sob.

The story goes on telling how the fawn is being raised in a garden, and the rabbit appears and seems to like the company, so it stays. They become inseparable and the rabbit actually changes its habits to accompany the fawn, such as when the fawn rests after having eaten, the rabbit stays at its side instead of running around in true rabbit-style. During the winter, the rabbit doesn't hide from the coldness but stays at the fawn's side, and in spring it actually builds a nest for the both of them.
The end of the story is the description how the fawn, who by now has become a beautiful doe, has to be reintroduced into the wilderness and how the rabbit says its good-bye before they part.

Now I want to know what happened to Thumper. tears.gif
