On these websites they have a home screen where the programs appear and you can browse through them, however since the update the website doesn't register my mouse hovering over objects or even clicking on them so I can't navigate the site. Other features such as full screen don't work if I select them and the screen just goes blank.

iPlayer problem: One solution is to switch to full screen while the video is loading at the start. Otherwise, if you click the button to change the video size, and then switch to full screen while it's loading, that seems to work too. Still, it's a very annoying glitch.
