The link you provide works only in google chrome.  It won't pull up under IE(which I hate anyway), nor Firefox(which I use).   Might be better to have it usable for the other browsers.  I initially thought it didn't work at all, but oddly, decided to try other browsers.  Just FYI.

I pulled the index up just fine in Firefox.  Were you logged in to a Google account at the time, Meiliken?  It is a Google Drive document after all.

Works ok for me in Firefox 23, Chrome 29 and IE8 (with high security) while logged out of of a google account. Logged in shouldn't have an impact, it's set to public read access with link.

Jack, I wasn't logged in, but I would think that one shouldn't have to have an account with google to read it.  That is basically corralling people into making an account with something they might not want.  Not very ethical.  So I doubt that's the problem.

Nunk, I have Firefox 24, Google Chrome 29, and IE8.  That's why it bewilders me.  I try to keep the most up to date browsers so I don't have problems seeing something online.  If you have no trouble pulling something up, it might be because it is saved on your computer.  I've made webpages before, and never had trouble pulling it up on my computer, only to find that when I used another computer, it didn't work.  So I'm really stumped on why I can't pull it up on anything but Google Chrome.  Suggestions?

I disabled all addons/plugins and wiped cookies out of Firefox, and I still have no issue while not being logged in to google.

Perhaps you have misbehaving plugins?
Perhaps there is some anonymous access restriction if you are not in the U.S.?

There is no password. It should be publicly viewable. I can view it just fine without being logged in.


Not sure what kind of bullshit google is pulling, they already pissed off all of Youtube.

Perhaps they're just f'ups

I'll see if toggling the setting helps

As far as I can tell, you have to be logged into an account to view it, but any account will do.  That's kind of an odd implementation of "publicly viewable," but there you go.

No, that's not completely true.

I think if it detects you have an account via a cookie, then it'll make you login.

Personally I have NoScript, Ghostery & AdBlockPlus installed. So, each session I have no persisted cookies. I can still open the link without being logged in as such.

In any case, I've toggled the setting to not just link, but to also publish. Let me know if you're still having problems.

Could you add a product key or something for each of the source abbreviations?

I had to do some reloading to get tabs up.  Odd.  Glad it's there now!
