1. I just got a problem with your new httpd on info.cern.ch.
When I tried to access the file:
http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/HTMLGeneration/fix-html.pl
with xmosaic 0.10, I got the following error message:
HTFormat: Sorry, can't convert from application/binary to www/present.
The line-mode browser www 1.3a produced the same error message.
With www 2.0 an empty page were produced.
After that I tried to use the new binary transfer mode feature of mosaic.
The result was a file with the above error message.
The same problem occured with other files referenced from:
http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/HTMLGeneration/Overview.html
for example: text2html.sed
2. Is it possible to get the files referenced from:
http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Tools/HTMLGeneration/Overview.html
via ftp ?
Or can someone put the files on info.cern.ch under /WWW/dev ?
