Have you properly configured your browser to accept content in english (in addition to others)? P.S : the direct URI for the resource in english is http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI.html.en but you shouldn't need it if your browser sends the proper accept-language information to our web server. regards, -- olivier
