    <p>Thank you very much for posting this.</p>
    <p>But what's annoying is the cluelessness of the USPTO people on
      this.  My browser settings are never anything other than American
      English.  And yet I, too, encounter the programming mistake that
      leads to constant browser refreshes.<br>

                                    the "jumpy" Patent Center, the one <br>
                                    that waits until I have uploaded a
                                    document or two, maybe selected a
                                    fee <br>
                                    to pay, and then at a time when I do
                                    not have my fingers on the keyboard
                                    <br>
                                    or hand on a mouse, Patent Center
                                    jumps to its main action screen and
                                    my <br>
                                    e-filing session has disappeared. 
                                    The function that is meant to be a <br>
                                    successor to EFS-Web is flaky right
                                    now.<br>
