[Blindtlk] issues with NFB site

Ray:

It seems from these understandably yet amusingly vague and secretive
comments that you're running a beta of OSX and that you're under an NDA
agreement which precludes you from telling us any more than you already
have. My guess is that our Web gurus haven't yet gotten around to coding the
site for compatibility with the version of OSX you're currently testing,
which is understandable considering that Windows 10 was just released to the
public with an entirely new Web browser. As you probably know, this is an
issue with betas--all the bugs haven't been eliminated, which means that not
all Web sites/software play nicely with it yet. I would report the issue to
both Apple and NFB so that whoever needs to fix it can do so before Release
Day.

Chris

Well, all I can say is that I"m testing versions of the Mac OS and IOS which
I can't discuss here.  A careful reader of that last sentence will be able
to guess why.  Nevertheless, my question seems to have been answer:  but, if
any others have anything else to say, I'm waiting.

independence market page, the site appears to ask for a certificate which,
all though I press the okay button, it never goes through and I get thrown
back to the dialog which asks for it.  Yes, it's clear they're restructuring
the site:  but, what's also clear is that the current version of Safari I'm
using, (I'm not at liberty to be any more speficic than that) has issues
with the coding they're using.

restructure the website quite a bit which might be throwing you off. I would
just search independence market and see if you can still purchase things
through their online. I read a lot about purchasing things through E mail or
calling to order. It also list of the different versions you can receive a
catalog by.  I'm sure you weren't quite expecting this answer. Best of luck.
