[WSIS CS-Plenary] UN Official Document System is online

[Adam Peake]

On Mac using various browsers I can search but cannot access 
documents.  Does seem to be javascript.

Welcome page says:

"The ODS is a multilingual system. Therefore, it requires 
UNICODE-based Internet browsers, such as MS Internet Explorer 5.5, 
Netscape 6.21 or higher versions. For access to the ODS, please 
ensure that your Internet browser complies with this requirement."

I try to use Safari and Firefox.
