I would just like Datek to implement actual testing of new HTML pages before they are committed to production use. A typical example was the new classic design that displayed all negative numbers as a red question mark for a few hours yesterday. And usability testing requires too that the response of the servers is tested with a real dial up account with more than hundred millisecond ping delay. Datek seems to think that what works well on the intranet where delays are 1 to 3 milliseconds works in the internet too. Unfortunately that is not the case. Andreas
