Hi everyone,

Thanks for a great site.

I have a Radar subscription, and have just aquired a BlackBerry Curve 8900 mobile phone.

IN trying to view the 5 minute radar page, everything appears apart from the radar pic. It worked fine on my Nokia N95.

Has anyone else had problems with viewing the 5 min radar on a Blackberry?

I know I have the Mobile/PDA pics but I can't get postcode zoom or the high-contrast (yellow/red etc.) scale that I prefer, only the blue-green one.

Hi Jim, I'm seeing same on the 8900 but its easy to fix.

Launch the Blackberry internet browser. Hit your blackberry menu button. Scroll down to options. Select Browser configuration. Tick boxes for "Support JavaScript" and "Allow JavaScript Popups". Save your changes. Quit the browser and relaunch. Log back on to NWExtra and Robert's your fathers brother, hopefully.

BB 8900 is my fav BB to date :p

Thanks very much - that has (mostly) done the trick!

Have you got the time slider to work, and the postcode and box zoom? Can't get them to work on here, maybe too much to hope for?
