Jeff,

Are you sure about this?  The scroll bar seems to go to the top of the table
header.  If you were correct, the scroll bar would stop at the top of body
of the visible table.  How did you check the HTML code?  Like was mentioned,
the developers did a good job of making the code inaccessible via IE.  It
doesn't seem to be in the browser cache anywhere.

Oddly, this relates back to a conversation a couple days ago about hiding
code.  Can anybody figure out how to get the code off the "installation
history" page of this url?:

Thanks.
