It is precisely because the link to Wolfram's copy of the converted notebook has a finite lifetime that I used a link to my own local copy! I will ensure that the local copy is more durable. However, in future I will give two links: Wolfram original (transient), and my copy (long-lived). -- Steve Luttrell West Malvern, UK "Nasser Abbasi" <nma at 12000.org> wrote in message news:ffpq5q$lde$1 at smc.vnet.net... > > "Steve Luttrell" <steve at _removemefirst_luttrell.org.uk> wrote in message > news:ffn0a2$5nl$1 at smc.vnet.net... >>I have just tried to do a trial run of (1) Creating a notebook using >> Mathematica 6, (2) Uploading the notebook for Mathematica Player online >> conversion (see >> http://www.wolfram.com/solutions/interactivedeployment/publish/), (3) >> Posting this converted notebook online for others to access (a ZIPped >> version is at >> http://www.luttrell.org.uk/notebooks/2D%20Ising%20Model.zip). >> >> To check that things worked on a previously clean machine (i.e. without >> Mathematica 6 installed) today I downloaded and installed Mathematica >> Player >> onto an old PC (running Windows XP, but not connected to the internet), >> and >> tried running the above converted notebook.
