The Index to Irish Civil Registrations (births, marriages, deaths) that we are talking about here is an index which gives the details needed to order the actual certificates.
http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=collectionDetails;t=searchable;c=1408347

The IGI and other parts of LDS site (www.familysearch.org) contains both extracted and submitted information. It doesn't give full details found on Irish certificates and other records.

Hello,

I cannot access the site for some reason. I get a blank page with the progress bar at 80% and I never get into the site. I have the latest version of Firefox and the latest version of Java and the latest version of Flash. Perhaps the site is on a blocked list ?? I know the government has blocked lots of non-Buddhist religious sites but a message usually appears.

Have a look at this topic to see if it's the same problem.

I usually get in ok and it was fine yesterday, no difference.

I've just tried it again and searchlabs changed the layout once flash has loaded. I can still get in though. It apears to naturally default to Europe for me as I'm in England.

Perhaps  now  its taking into account your IP address this is causing the problem. I would drop familysearch an email.

I should clarify, that  I'm talking about the searchlabs pilot site.  I ue IE 7 to access it.

Hello aghadowey,

I have tried with Firefox, IE7 and now IE8 and the result is the same. I have no problems with the normal site just with the pilot site.

Regards,

Fred

Hello jc26red,

Ok, I'll do that, thanks. I think it is an external problem meaning I don't think it is a Flash issue because it happens with FF and IE.

Regards,

Fred

Does anyone know when the 1901 Census is going online? I know on the National Archives site they say end of 2009 to early 2110. I can't wait.  Anyone know anything more?
