Thanks Nakayama-san,

I will try on a different computer tomorrow to see if I get a different
result.

Thanks to Steve who wrote me with advice - I do clear my cache/cookies
regularly and  I tried the website with more than one browser without any
luck before I wrote my initial message.  I'll update when I get through to
the site.

It sounds like a great project,
All the best, Cathy
