Do you have a new website address?

Addresses I used to visit no longer work, such as
<http://www.mvps.org/word/> and <http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/index.html>

Thanks, Corentin. As I read your response, I got a hunch that the problem
was not with the website addresses, but with the Safari 1.0 web browser I'm
using. When I used Internet Explorer, I got through to both website
addresses. I just reported the incomplete page contents problems for the
two addresses to the Safari developers.

That said, a couple different variations of searches of the MVPs' Word
website pages could not answer my question. Can you, please?:

How does one temporarily disable an email address in a Word document so that
one may make changes in it? (For example, in a membership roster document
that includes email addresses that need to be updated/edited.)

Hi Norman:

I just answered it :-) You can right-click it. That presents you with an
Edit Hyperlink option.

BTW: I am the webmaster for www.mvps.org/Word. We know it doesn't work
properly with Safari, and no, we are NOT going to recode all 1,500 pages so
that it does :-)

Generally you will find that the pages will appear if you Reload: Safari
seems to be forgetting to call in the CSS style sheet.

cheers

Well I tested the page in OmniWeb 4.5sp38 (based on the same engine as
Safari) and the page loaded immidiately without a glitch soit really
makes me feel it could be a Safari issue more than a problem related to
bad code in the page. I'll send a bug report to Apple.

I know there are issues reported by the W3C validator for these pages,
but it doesn't seem to prevent OW from loading the page.
