I'm just tired doing the copy again and again as it is past my bed time.<br>
<br>
Anyways, perhaps it doesn't know to play nicely with the https<br>
(secured) or just does not want to play with hindi or those particular<br>
pages.<br>
<br>
If somebody does find a page which does not give 500 Internal Server<br>
message with hindi (preferably with the https:// turned on please let<br>
me know ) .<br>
