".Net" websites not accepted?

Hello,

When I try to add a ".NET" website to the sites area I get thsi error message: "This link does not appear to be a working link. Please check the URL and try again"  The site I am trying to add is www.libertyinternational.net Can anyone help with this?  I have successfully added ".COM" sites but not the ".NET" ones.

Thank you,

Jeff

He's right. I tried it. with and without the www all you get is an error. The site does exist. Looks like we need a ticket....

Can someone submit a ticket for this.  When I try it says I don't have "privledges"

Thank you,

Jeff

Does the error only happen with that site or any other .net sites you tried?  I have a .net domain and was able to capture the info without issue.

Oh crap. That's why I'm not a developer.

It's a frontpage generated site.....

Thank you Skyforum and Mauricecano.  So are you saying that sites created with Frontpage will not be added to the sites module? .COM or .NET?

Well front page was last released "new" in 2003 and didn't really properly markup html files.  They "optimized" pages for IE 6 so if it was made with front page there is a good chance that is causing the problem.

I don't have enough experience to tell you if that's the issue or not but I know enough about the whole Frontpage product to tell you that it was an attempt by Microsoft to completely change (and control) how web pages were developed and displayed. (Thank god it failed!) That site, if I am not mistaken, was actually built in a microsoft office document and the code was generated by a frontpage plugin.

I tested the site mod on a couple of other sites that are .net and had no trouble getting it to work. It has to be something with the underlying markup with that particular page.

Does anyone know what the site mod uses to determine if the url is valid or not? Obviously, it's looking at the underlying code of the page it's trying to get.
