Hi Tilahun,

Thanks for your persistence.  I'm sure I also saw the problem as you
describe, and it was due to several Javascript libraries being missed
out of the package which explains why the interface could not be drawn.

I've confirmed the libraries are back in the latest package, and I have
also tested it in both Chrome and Firefox and it now works for me.  Are
you sure that it is not a caching issue in Firefox?  If you hold down
"shift" and reload the page that should force a full reload.  Does that
help at all?

Cheers,

TIM
