Jim,

It seems that you are honing in on where the problem
occurs. This is what happened to me: I am currently
moving my web site to a new host and have been
given a mechanism (an Url) to access and test
the new host prior to actual transfer.

I found that trying to access a page which does not
yet exist on the new host, using "HREF", correctly
gave me the 'not existing' message. But where I used
"href" it took me to the actual current web host.(In all
cases I am using relative Urls).  The problem was of course
that I could not tell if my links were working properly
or not in the second case.  I therefore changed all href
to HREF to be sure.
