    This might all be caused by the relatively new <embed> html tag which I've used as part of the strategy for the server to find the latest version of the files, so that I can maintain a history of versions on the site. I've added an extra field which might help your browsers to find the file type.

    For pdfs, if you don't use the Adobe reader, some other suitable reader will be needed. It's usually linked in to the browser these days.

    Please try again with the updated files which I've now uploaded.

    Out of interest, what browsers are you using, and what operating systems, to cause these failures?

    Of course, pdfs can always be found via the 'Printable pdfs' button on the single page listing (assuming you can get that - if the new file still doesn't work, there's a workaround which I can supply.)

      Andrew: displays are fine on my iPad (not sure I've looked from this device before!).
      My main Mac is shut down for the evening, but I'll try the links on it tomorrow and report back.

      Many thanks.

        I'm using Firefox with macOS High Sierra 10.13.4. I can get to the printable list via the one-page listing. Happy to do that if it's not affecting anyone else - I just assumed it was a problem with the link.
        It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

          Thanks - I'll investigate to see if there's a known problem. Is it still not working? It's odd that the single page works, but not the pdfs, especially when they work via the other route.

            Not working on the iMac, but it is on my phone. However, I don’t use my phone to access the forum

              Fine now on my main Mac (iMac) too.
              Many thanks Andrew.

                  Glad to hear that your browser is doing something

                  I think your browser settings might be to blame. (I'll contact you directly about that.)

                    I wish to announce that Andrew has solved the problem.

                      For what it's worth I've now updated it to a final version 7, which includes hand-edited details for the last night.

                      I hope the pdfs work
