So...did this recipe break or is it just me? I tried the built-in, tried this one...and nada (okay, summary/blurb but no full article).

What I want and what it /looks/ like should happen is the starting menu, the articles menu/summary/blurb, then after that the actual articles in their entirety.

What I get: the starting menu, the summary/blurb bits, and "blank" pages except for header/footer from Calibre and a link to where the article was "downloaded" from.

If I follow the link shown, I go to the Cracked site and the article appears without any sort of errors or issues...but that's on my PC, with a browser and internet connection, I can't do that on my PRS-350.

I have no clue whatsoever about recipes, I've managed to modify a couple of builtins (mostly commenting/uncommenting the ones that are intended to be modified per user wants) but trying to work out what all is going on in this complex of one...so very not my skillset.

There are other recipes that I have this same issue with, but I'm still mucking about with them to see if I can easily work out the problem, but the recipes are all mostly uncomprehensible to me - even with the tutorials out there, I am not a programmer, I've tried to learn a number of programming "things" (languages, partial subsets of instructions, and so on) in my past and my brain just looks at it and goes..."interesting...what is it? It seems to be words but they make no sense" (and that's looking at the how-tos and guides, nevermind what code samples usually do to my brain)

Someone smarter than I am with programming and recipes...help? Please? I don't even know what info I should give you if it is a problem on my end somehow.
