Us as well, again as Susan mentioned, it's not with every journal but some. Inconsistent.

Best,
Tina

Diane:

Yes, I just encountered the same thing. However, it was not with every journal title that I randomly chose.
I went back and tried one that was fine, and now I am getting that same problem.

Definitely inconsistent.

Hi,

Is anyone else experiencing inconsistent behavior with the access icons? That is, you go into a journal and the most recent issue is showing the shopping cart icon (paywall) for all issues, but if you click into an article you can actually read it. Then if you click around  and come back to that first issue you looked at, now it's showing the green unlocked padlock symbol indicating full text access.

By the way, the new navigation system is pretty bad. Dropdown menus that force page reloads with every selection and the website is not very fast either. I'm trying to reconcile Oxford and the icon weirdness and dropdown menus are making life rather difficult.

Yes I have complained in various ways and I'm yet to hear anything. This icon behavior is inconsistent and difficult to test; I notice it happens less without proxy. We are on WAM proxy and Millennium ILS (just upgraded last night to a newer release ... still having problems with Taylor & Francis not loading icons and css correctly.)
