The heading on the analzyer2.php site references the site itself (see e.g. http://amp.dascene.net/analyzer2.php?idx=109659) - that doesn't make sense - why would i want to click on a link that leads to just the same site? I guess it would make more sense to actually link the heading to the module, because right now there seems to be no way to download a module from that site, and you are basically trapped there if you come to analyzer2.php e.g. through a search engine.

But ... there's no link, per se, just a A HREF="". I must talk to Monty about this (he designed this part).
And, well, this was not designed to be reached directly, although, I'm wondering why now. The idea was to make a pop-up of some sort. Now, looking at this page highlights some possible improvements.

OK, let me talk with the guy and come back to you.
And again, thanks for this report.

Yes, browsers just interpret that as a self-reference... Obviously it's a relict of bad javascript coding (the javascript handler shouldn't be an onclick event, but rather be used like href="javascript:..." - but that's not the point of course. This popup close magic does of course not work when coming from a search engine, so it's pointless.

Good idea!
