you mean you expected when you clicked on "Click Here", you'd get the English content anyway?

apart from the domain belonging to him (or her) at a UK address?

And it's selling pixels for advertising - so I assume he or she is punting this via EF. Either that or displaying a fine Web 1.0 website designed with no accessibility nor usability in mind

You must have missed the link to the Web 0.9 version.

http://www.betteruse.org/index2006.php

You had the non-functional language choice of France (French) or Suisse (French).

Maybe this member can help us on the 'differences between French French and Swiss French thread'
