Hi,

next url work in Firefox, but not in IE:

example "bad lin file" no 1 or example "bad lin file" no 2.

IE ended with "error parsing file".

But next url work in Firefox and IE too:

example "good lin file" no 1 and example from "good lin file" no 2.

All target file is standard lin file from BBO match.

Any sugestion, please?

If you send me copies of the files in question by e-mail (fred@bridgebase.com), I will have a look.

For me, none of the two first work in firefox. Using 3.6 for windows.

A couple of things you might try:

1) Save your files with Unicode encoding (I think you are using ANSI now)
2) Rename your files so that their extension is .lin (instead of .xml)

UTF-8 (instead inicially used Windows 1250) encoding solved the problem.

Thank you very much.

PS: extension change don't help.
