Steve's right - I didn't realise ggpht.com was a Google site... But tinyurl.com is returning the right URL (see my earlier posting), so I still suspect something untoward is going on locally... (the resource paths that Barry and Roger get back in the error messages are correct - just missing the host name part). -- Andy Greener n.b.
