I wondered if anyone could possibly check this link in both a Mac
AND PC… Error 404 - Not found
This file is on the server and I can call it from my Mac (even after
emptying caches etc)…but can’t see it from my PC - nor from a
friend’s PC.
Here’s your problem - taken from the page head, it seems this
includes some shayte from Word:
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Freeway Pro 3.5.15">
<meta name="Title" content="Title">
<meta name="Keywords" content="Keywords">
<meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document">
<meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10">
There’s a load of other stuff in there as well, but I suspect the
problem is down to pasting in content directly from Word. That
includes Microsoft-made code junk that, ironically, prevents the page
from working properly in Microsoft’s own browser. You may well have
to rebuild the page to get rid of the problem, I’m afraid.
Wasn’t Freeway fixed so it spotted and stripped out this sort of
Microsoft foot-shooting stupidity? Does it need to be updated so that
it spots crap from newer versions of Word?

Actually Hugh, HERE’s your problem:

Newer versions of Freeway strip out the rubbish that Word packs along
with text on the clipboard. But Freeway 3.x doesn’t have this
ability, so you’ll need to either clean the text first (pasting and
copying through a plain-text TextEdit document, for example) or get a
newer version of Freeway.
