It does indeed, but none of the obvious candidates I tried seemed to make a 
difference to the Yahoo Groups server.

The weirder part is that if I change the view from KHTML to KMOZILLA I can 
occasionally get a Yahoo Groups page to render.     As I understand what view 
does, it is just changing the look of the browser interface buttons, icons 
etc.    Why that affects what the Yahoo Groups server is sending is beyond 
me.   

As I said in my previous posts the KMOZILLA skin usually only works one layer 
in.   ie. if I click on a link which requires that I fill in a info form the 
Yahoo Groups server seems to behave as if it never saw the info ...  almost 
like I'm dealing with a browser cache problem  ...   I tried all the cache 
settings I could find to no avail.

The true Mozilla browser doesn't seem to have any problems with this site.   
Mozilla doesn't seem to want to participate in simple cut, copy and paste 
clipboard operations (in KDE anyway) which is why I'd like to be able to use 
Konqueror.
