Thanks groom, that worked for me  :)

However I wasn't expecting to be logged in becasue I'd deleted cookies and although my trees are displayed and I am logged in, it's not displaying my user name. Bit strange, I thought.

Never mind and thanks so much for the link  :)
Best wishes HL

Thanks for the link.  Just don't click on the home tab as it falls over then. ;)

Edit - oops one search worked then the search tab fails ....

They appear to be trying to remove old search because initially when I clicked on groom's link, when I clicked search it worked.  Now if you click the search tab, it takes you to a different page which isn't working - http://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/default.aspx.  This currently works - http://search.ancestry.co.uk/oldsearch/default.aspx - but for how much longer remains to be seen. ::)

When I go in on groom's link I still get old search when I do a search.

Have you got your search option set on old or new smudwhisk?

I have noticed when you type in the enter location box, the options of places doesn't appear.
