D2D won't accept a link

Bremman · Today, 01:15 PM

Dear Community Forum,

I always use links to online Bibles on the copyright pages of my books that are published in six languages and have never had a problem until today when D2D Validator rejected a link to an online French Bible: http://otremolet.free.fr//otbiblio//bible//index.html.

I have fixed numerous errors on my own by looking in the Word document and figuring out what it does not accept, but this is the second time I cannot figure out what the problem is. Please know that I am not knowledgeable about code and it takes me a little while to figure out what you mean. If you can spare a few extra words, I would appreciate it, as terse explanations can be mystifying...

I also do not understand why it says (28, 272) when there is no line number 272 -- it stops at 34. Maybe this question does not need to be answered, but I ask in case it does...

Thank you in advance for your time and generosity!

John

Line 28
Character position 272

If you look at the URL, file:/// is pointing to a file on your local hard drive. You would need to replace the link with one accessible from the Internet such as http://otremolet.free.fr/otbiblio/bible/index.html.
