Certainly does, there's something about that page (you'll see after
the first press that all the text disappears if you either add more
than one line of text, or move the browser window offscreen then back
on (causing a repaint.) - ILAYER is what's causing the problem
replacing them with LAYER and you get success - but obviously the
positioning then needs to be fixed, and can't reflow nicely, so we're
back to the solution I mentioned of having ILAYERS to obtain the
position and then positioning a layer on top of it, very hacky to just
support NN4. - I'll look into it though.

Jim.
