Thanks for confirming that.

Right.  Just before the troublesome one is this one that I do want to 
download:

<link rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="jambo.css">

I've thought about doing that, but since I have a random element to my

do when retrieving pages in varying order.  And listing all the 
resources individually would make the test harder to maintain.
