Re: Help needed: Why does my web page hang?

Answering my own question: Twice yesterday, I got on the test site and clicked fairly rapidly about one hundred times, and the page didn't hang at all. Maybe it's just a matter of how busy the server is. By contrast, my own Win ME localhost, hangs consistently, without fail, within 5 - 20 clicks. Just an inherent flaw in Windows ME running PWS, maybe? Anyway, comments are welcome. Thanks.
