Hi Folks The URL is NOT underlined correctly. The " mark is clearly underscored and therefore is in the address and your browser has no reason to ignore it because it IS there. Computers do not think they only do as they are told, and if they are told that the address has a " on the end than they can not ignore it because they have no ability to ignore. That is a human quality. Try this to get to the occupations URL. http://www.worldroots.com/brigitte/occupat.htm Kevin M.
