Note! I just got a notice back from the admin and it's NOT logical
expressions' down server at all. It's these damn =3D3D chars that find =
their
way into posts around here!!! I never paid too much attention to the =
problem
with how they get in all these messages and muck them up, but the =
servers
are find and TechTrax is/was always up and running. The links just got
messed up due to a renegade 3D that slipped into the URL.

The URL that showed up in the message was this:

http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=3D3D189

Yet the REAL URL that I posted to the mess was this:

http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=3D189

Now if it messed up again...it SHOULD be just the
pubs.logicalexpressions.com and then our Pub number for TechTrax, which =
is
/Pub0009/ and then the LPMArticle.asp? listing for the Logical =
Expressions
Publication Manager Article and then the actual article ID...which in =
the
above case was ID=3D189.

I know this happened once before here, too. So if it happens again, all =
I
can say is that there should not be any 3D code in the URLs, it should =
be
like this:

pubs.logicalexpressions.com
/pub0009/
LPMArticle.asp?
ID=3D[whatever article #]

Dian,
I'm getting 500 server errors on all those URLS you've pointed to below =
and
in your previous email... I suspect incorrect syntax there somewhere or =
a
web server config problem... ;-)
