Hi Thomas,

We don't supply style sheets for the XML returned from our very basic DAS 
server -- could that be the problem?  I can see the raw XML results of the 
query using FireFox.  Have you tried using a DAS client tool?  

In case the raw XML is what you need, attached is the result of the command 
"wget -O hg19_types.xml 'http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/types'".  (The 
attachment will be stripped from the email that goes out to the genome list, 
but should reach you Thomas.)

Hope that helps,

Angie
