Hi, Just checked this in my account with Firefox 10.0.2, and am having no issues at all, and I checked all three versions of BT apps. Perhaps try logging out and then back in, or deleting your cache? Mark

In case anyone wonders, or cares... CSS and Javascript files are cached by your browser for a very long time. The idea is that because most sites use the same CSS and Java "include files" for nearly all of their content, there isn't any reason to re-download these with each pages request everytime you visit. In this case, it's especially important because the old sites CSS and Javascript files were totally different. I'll bet @Bigfishtools had styles and scripts loaded in the cache from the old BT.com - which of course would be useless! Part of the new HTML5 specification allows developers to invalidate CSS and Javascript files much like we already do HTML files. Had this been supported already we would have been able to save some folks some trouble during this transition? We considered renaming the CSS / Jscript files to force your browsers to re-fetch them but then the older ones would have been marooned on your machine never to be used again - not good. No sense in filling up your caches with useless files! Dear HTML5 specification people. Please have this feature useable before our next redesign. You have about 24 month.
