I fill in the form on the IGI and get a page of results. I click on one to see the details, then when I click the back button to return to list of results, I get 'page expired'...............................Is this something new with LDS or the settings on my computer. I have cookies enabled as I need them for other sites. Thanks.

HI Carol, No need to use your back button -just click on 'search results , at the top of the page, and it will take you back to your list of names. Regards, Beverley from Perth.

When you click the 'Back' button, it does not return you direct to the website, but to the previous page stored on your computer. Depending on your setting, whether or not the cache is full or has space may dictate the result you get. Safer not yo use the back button if you are having any problems.
