Tom, this is definitely not off-topic. Using Firefox 47, I was able to
access this web site without any difficulty. A few members of other lists
have reported web accessibility problems with Firefox 48 an 49, so perhaps
this is the reason you are getting an error message. I suggest installing
the portable version of Firefox 47 and see whether you can access this site
with it. Note that you can have both the full and the portable versions of
Firefox installed on the same computer.

Hello.
I don't mean to be a pain by re-posting this, but could really use some
input on resolving the issue described below.
Wonder if anyone else has seen it?

Subject: Web Site Access Issue With Firefox 49
Hello, everyone.
I hope this is not considered off topic, but I'm not sure if the following
issue is related to Firefox or Jaws.
Basically, I'm having trouble accessing a web site containing tutorials for
the iPhone.
The web site is:
www.voiceover-easy.net <http://www.voiceover-easy.net>
When I try to access the web site via Firefox (version 49.0.1), I get the
error message below. I don't get this message when trying to access the web
site with Internet Explorer 11.
I'm wondering if this is a Jaws of Firefox issue, and how to correct the
problem?
Here's the error message I get when using Firefox:
Input string was not in a correct format.
Server Error in '/' Application.
