Hi folks, I wonder if I could get some feedback on this desktop. It's only the fourth or fifth I've done so I'm still feeling my way.

Klas: Are you using firefox or another mozilla browser? Firefox interprets the "&image" in the link as a special character. If you see a funny script character between "Caedes::Infopage" and "=endofreason-1093429616.jpg", you'll need to replace that character with "&image"
Or I could be marginally more useful and just give you a link to the work endofreason would like opinions on here.
I'm trying out Omniweb. I guess you were right anyway. Thanks for the tip (and the link). I never had this kind of trouble before. I'll check if Safari (that I usually use) has the same problem.
I use Firefox and didn't realize until now why I couldn't access so many links. That little thingy looks an awful lot like the little bird (Woodstock) on 'Peanuts". Hmmm...
I don't know about a patch, I get the impression it's supposed to work like that (or at least almost like that). Special characters in html are usually made up of by an ampersand (&), then a name, and ended with a semicolon (;), like these. Perhaps firefox is just a little lenient and not requiring the ending semicolon. So I guess it's just kinda dumb luck that one of the codes for special ascii happens to be in the caedes urls.
I think the easiest way to fix the problem is to have everyone pasting an address just make it a hyperlink. The way to do this again is <*a href="yourURLhere"*>your title here<*/a*>
(just without the * characters)
