I typed about:robots and when I clicked on "try again," it changes to "please do not press this button again."

How do I get to the "fun" after typing about:robots in the URL bar?

I typed about:robots and when I clicked on "try again," it changes to "please do not press this button again." When I click on that (contrary to instructions), those words simply disappear. What should I do differently?

Hello DrFitz, yes they are made so. If you want to again have that fun you have to again type about:robots. Thanks

That's IT? You just type about:robots, click on "Try again" and it changes to "Please do not press this button again." That's the "fun?"

The instructions are:

Now, type About:Robots into your URL bar.

What happens next is so much fun, that we don’t want to ruin the surprise by telling you about it here. Keep clicking “Try again.” Make sure to also note the favicon (the little graphic known also known as the Web site icon) and the title of the Web page!

My inference is that "try again" would stay there and the robot icon would change. It's a one click bit of "fun?" Then why do the instructions say "Keep clicking 'try again?'"
