So, as of this morning, I can not use the @URL tag on our intranet
server to reference any sites hosted on that server. Using that tag
gives this error:
http://intranet.ourstuff.com: unable to send data: No error
I get the same error if I reference external sites (e.g., www.yahoo.com)
Using the @URL tag to reference sites hosted on other campus servers
works, but the referenced sites lose all images, etc. Is this normal?
(I've not used the @URL tag much.)
Has anyone heard of something similar? I'm trying to give my nw guys
some idea of where to look & what to try; if I can't, they'll likely say
it's Tango & the apps rather than their set-up. Which it could be, but
then I still have to figure out what and fix it! :(
Thanks for any suggestions.
