Hi Kat,

I don't know the precise answer to your question but will try to offer
something.  The lack of replies could be due to confusion over just what you
are asking.  Specifically that line "maskhextodns { ..." that you refer to,
it doesn't look like any HTML I've seen.  That's in your HTML file that
you're trying to serve??

Plain old 'read should do the http:// read just fine... I've used it many
times... if it's truly an HTML file.  Try reading some other page right off
the web, as:

>> page: read http://www.rebol.com
== {<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN">
<HTML>

<HEAD>
^-<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html;CHARSET=i...
>> type? page
== string!
>> length? page
== 10839

Here's something I would suggest: create a SIMPLE HTML file to serve... and
see if the problem persists.  That might at least help pin down if it's the
server, REBOL, the file or what that's causing the problem, and where.

<HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>TEST</BODY><HTML>

Try that.  Then try it with some line-feeds after some of the elements:

<HTML>
<HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>
TEST
</BODY>
</HTML>

Does it serve both of these files ok to REBOL and IE?

Perhaps with those results I or someone else can help you more.
