Hi Al, this is not so strange after all.
A browser will evaluate http://www.samhughes.org/../images/banner-images/225backgnd-without.gif as http://www.samhughes.org/images/banner-images/225backgnd-without.gif because "../" means "One directory up", but since this is already in the top position, there is no way to go but to stay. This is the link you see in the status bar. On the other hand http://www.samhughes.org/images/../banner-images/225backgnd-without.gif would evaluate to http://www.samhughes.org/banner-images/225backgnd-without.gif and thus will fail. But Xenu is not a browser, it takes the link verbatim and sends it to the server. And the server answers: "400 Bad Request text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" Hence the error. Hope this helps Thomas ________________________________ Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Al Guevara Gesendet: Montag, 17.

I thought you might want to see this Tilman. Please note the HAND cursor on the 2nd to top Url. Comparing the top Url, and the bottom status bar Url, see that the two Urls differ. The top Url has the ( /../ ) extra folder, (for lack of a correct name) and the bottom Url does not. Its like Xenu is not functioning correctly in the report mode. But is in the status bar. What is the /../ in the top (report) Url? Xenu is reporting a broke link where none exists? In attached the .xen file for you. Al Guevara Tucson, AZ
