I tried the above link, and it works, kind of.
The reply page is generated using the more complex (non text-only)
results page.
e.g. <http://www.whitepages.com.au/wp/resSearch.do;jsessionid=whatever>
The reason the original "simple" page now shows HTML as plain text is
that the web "redesigner" has specified the content type as text/plain
instead of text/html. Seems the bozos don't know the difference between
a "text only page" and "HTML content type".
Do these people have a clue? Only when it comes to style over substance,
perhaps.
cheers
