Wall Street Journal Gone?

emceephd · 02-13-2003, 05:16 PM

Help?

It's gone for me, too. They have probably changed the URL. Any sleuths know it?

I think they restricted access again

Not only is the WSJ apparently blocked, but you should know that the two Bloomberg sites will not convert either: they say that they are restricted to AvantGo users. PDR

They work fine here. You probably didn't set your user-agent right. Please check here for more info: http://www.turcic.com/forums/showthr...s=&threadid=88

Just reset the user agent as directed and it works. Thanks. PDR

Still no WSJ... Any ideas if they'll be back on-line soon?

Also, since this is the "Broken and Obsolete Link" section, does anyone know if there is a way to disable certain iSilo "channels" from downloading each time I press the"Convert All" button?

For instance, since wsj.com is currently unavailable, it would be cool to mark it somehow so a "Convert All" ignores the WSJ settings and doesn't waste time with the download (while at the same time, my settings are retained should the site ever come back on).

Thanks!

You can open up a second instance of iSiloX, do File/New, save as PENDING or something, then cut-n-paste the ones you want to take to pending status. Then reverse it when they're up again.

Other than that, someone else may have an idea. I tried deleting the destination, but iSilo will still go through downloading the site, so that doesn't help.
