I visited the site again this morning.  They have fixed it.  Content
type is now "text/html".  The server now being used is
Netscape Enterprise/4.0.  Was the server type the same before they fixed
it?  When clicking on the link with Opera before they fixed it, the page
would be displayed as html.

BTW, clicking on the link used to cause the page to be displayed as text
also with the Lynx386 text browser for DOS.  Now the link works as it
should both for Arachne and Lynx386.

Very interesting information you have posted, L.D.  Thanks.

Arachne is really cool.  When I put my mouse over the link and press "=",
I will get information not only on the content type and server type, but
a list of all files associated with the page as well.  I was never aware
of such a fine feature in Arachne until just now.  I wonder if Netscape
and Opera or any other browser deserving of positive consideration also
incorporate such an excellent feature.

All the best,

Sam Heywood
