Hello Gordon,

We have tested this on Firefox 2 on Mac OS X and we are not seeing the 
problem. One thing to try is to reset the cart which stores the settings 
that you have been using. Sometimes a cart reset will restore everything 
to normal. To do this, either click on the link "Click here to reset" 
below the genome and assembly on the Genomes page or you can just use this 
URL:

http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/cartReset

If this does not solve your problem, then please let us know and we will
investigate further.

Rachel
