When I run your script I get: --- [ CONTENT ] --- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> <head> <title>Calculate the Value of Your Paper Savings Bond(s)</title> <meta name="BPD.source" content="BC_savings_start.tpl" /> <style type="text/css" media="all"> @import "/css/bc_all.css"; </style> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/css/gw_td_null.css" /> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> @import "/css/gw_indiv_screen.css"; </style> <style type="text/css" media="print"> @import "/css/gw_indiv_print.css"; </style> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/css/gw_td_fontsize76.css" title="76" /> [************************* A lot of output removed for brevity ******************************] </div> </body> </html> --- [ CONTENT ] --- So the problem would seem to be between you and them.
