John,

Can you be more explicit about the "don't work" statement. I tried them 
on Firefox (latest release) on Windows 7, Chrome (latest) on Chromebook, 
and Edge (on Windows 10). I know that IE will not work because it does 
not support some fundamental calls. I don't have Opera or Safari. The 
performance and response in all three browsers is the same.
