Glad to help.
It is very neat, and a credit to Imi for a smart user interface. I was
very surprised when I found that out. It's very helpful.

Excellent. That is what I meant, and it works perfectly well.
I was assuming the panning and re-selection would have to be done in
OSM, not JOSM.
It is neat that a JOSM pan gives revised bounding box and allows that
download.
Thanks for persevering with solution!

Cheers

It works for me. 
I think you're getting confused - once you've got a screenful of
information in JOSM using a URL you've grabbed from OSM, then you can
pan in JOSM (right mouse drag) until you've exposed a mostly blank
screen, and then hit download from OSM again -  that will fill in the
next screenful in JOSM seamlessly. Is that what you meant?

Sorry, but neither of these work for me (in Firefox or IE).
I am in OSM view and have copied existing URL into JOSM and now want to
get a butted-up view for bigger display (by getting new URL to paste). I
have now compromised by changing the lat by +/- 0.04 or long by +/- 0.08
and using resulting URL (at zoom=12) - but even that isn't accurate.

PS: does ayone know what has happened to database stats page? It has
been blank for last several days. Is "producer" just away for while or
is there problem? I find this useful info on how much data is being
created and by whom (also sadly as an incentive to keep creating to get
in top 10!).

He! JOSM is innocent. The limit comes from the server. ;-)

That or pressing Ctrl+left/right/up/down five times (each press, the
view is scrolled by 1/5 of screen)

Ciao, Imi
