Subject: SENIT The Ngfl website As a teacher with a website focused on external links, what irritates me most about national educational websites is the way that key pages soon vanish from their original location. I have to spend a lot of time I don't have searching for the new location of the page, which may not exist any more. Another irritation is the current vogue for page creation "on the fly". Here the page I want doesn't have a fixed location any more, just one created for it by an often over-engineered search engine within the website, so I can't make a proper link from my own website. Another annoying feature of this method is that the back button brings a "page expired" message. I'm sure that webmasters consider it progress and helpful to give access to a document via a search engine, but it's a real pain for those of us who want to link to a particular web page.
