URL won't work on Forum

ApS · 04-13-2005, 04:32 PM

I can view this URL: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-70241.html

From what I can gather, only one other Forum user has been able to view it at the "GFBL owners: the real story" thread. (Getting "Blank" or "Cannot find Server" messages, instead).

Long URLs, I notice, are abbreviated. The abbreviated form will appear in the "address window" as the abbreviated form. (Lots of dots in the middle). No site appears.

If it is helpful, here is the entire URL, as I posted it -- but exactly "cut in half" intentionally:

http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/archive/

index.php/t-70241.html

Only one person has found it, but it appeared under http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/...ead.php?t=70241 (which also appears abbreviated).

Another: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...light=fasshion (Which again, also appears abbreviated).

Why can't the preferred, black-and-white archive version -- such as in my original post -- appear?

Is it my "old" Windows Millennium Operating System versus the newer ones?
