[dba-Tech] Pop-up stoppers

Shamil's Link works absolutly 100% with Firebird, it does not get the 
incompatible browser as when using Opera.  The rendering of the page is 
a tad bit diffrent, for instance drawing distances in the menu, but are 
so close that unless you have both browsers open you'd never notice.

And Firebird loads faster too.
