Only thing I could think of was you've got some wierd locale set where the letter r isn't ascii code 114 but that would only result in garbage. Personally I like the idea in your original message where someone thinks it's a proxy issue.
I suggest elimination time... Try browsing the file with a gui browser on the web server (if you have one) otherwise NFS mount, mirror the files etc "mozilla file:///var/www/html/thingo.html" Next try the same thing but add the web server "mozilla http://localhost/thingo.html"; Try mirroring the stuff to another web server, try different browsers, try with/without proxy etc. On Thu, 25 Sep 2003, Webmaster wrote: > Hi All: > > I have spent some time on this where > I experienced that problem with <a> tags > wherever it's being used..
