Open with a text editor -- BBedit for example. At least you will be able (if it really is HTML) to read the text amongst the codes. If you have any knowledge of HTML you might be able to fix them -- possibly for instance they have references to files that aren't there -- it's too common, for instance, to see a file linked or included like file://c:\my documents\somefile.jpg (syntax may be wrong, but similar), especially in HTML from Word or Frontpage. Also perhaps there are javascripts that don't work, I'd just delete everything between <script> and </script>. Alternatively, look for a free or shareware HTML editor which might be able to interpret it. (Dreamweaver probably could, but it's not free, sorry I can't recommend another off the top of my head.) Word can probably be persuaded to display it too -- as HTML code (like BBedit does) if not laid out. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
