Hi Christian
I am using firefox, and cookies are being accepted, java script is
enabled on firefox.
I'm getting the same with galeon and epithany
"You must enter a User Name and Password to continue, or click
"Register Now" to create an account." and also 
"	Welcome, Richard | Logout "

I've even checked that I didn't use quotes instead of @ in the user name
as I've got to alter the keyboard settings in X, (UK keyboard)
I know firefox an be a pain sometimes, especially on sites like ebay
with images.


I can log into the developer site, it accepts the user & password
there.Very strange
