[Wikisource-l] Back to the Scroll

[Billinghurst]

Hi Magnus,

The tool has choked on something for
 http://toolserver.org/~magnus/book2scroll/index.html?lang=en&file=Mrs_Caudle%2527s_curtain_lectures.djvu&startpage=1
might it be the apostrophe in the url?  This url just shows the one page, and no 
subsequent pages, and that is for whichever starting page one feeds into the url.

Regards Andrew
