Hi Diana
I had a problem downloading images from Britishorigins and complained.
Here's what I got back from the site...
Mike
I suspect the problem is that we are using jpeg images (because the
1841 images are grey scale) in tiff format and some tiff viewers are
not clever enough to recognise these. We shall have to have a closer
look at this problem next week when the office is open again after the
Easter weekend, and we will get back to you. Please allow a week at
least; I suspect that this may turn out to be a tricky problem. I doubt
that there is anything "wrong" at our end, but we may have to be a bit
more clever with how we deal with tiff/jpeg images and Macs.
Thankyou for using The Origins Network.
Kind regards

I really have no idea what it all means. Help please! What should I do?

Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The
current custom error settings for this application prevent the details
of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security
reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the
local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be
viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within
a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the
current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its
"mode" attribute set to "Off".
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a
custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the
application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom
error page URL.
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly"
defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
