Unable to view DoS standings

I am on a mac... not sure if that makes any difference. But ever since the link was changed from .html to xml I have been unable to view the standings. Is there any way to fix this? Here's what I see upon clicking the link:

Not sure why it could be doing that. Will see if I can dig up some Mac information regarding that. Are you using AOL or another browser. Also, check your internet security settings to see if xml is being restricted in any way or perhaps thru a firewall. I dont currently have a Mac at my disposal so it may take a while to resolve this issue. Please bear with us while we look into it.

I sent this one to my Mac programmer, this is his response:

The mac IE browser is version 5.5 and never has supported certain IE “PC” features very well. JAVA is terrible on a Mac but I’m not sure about XML. The new Mac OS, version X has some enhanced feature built into their proprietary browser called Safari. I guess they took up where Microsoft left off because I don’t think Microsoft has made a browser change for the Mac in over 4 years….maybe a few bug fixes but that’s about it.

I’ll try Firefox or Netscape on the Mac when I get home tonight

I will keep you posted on what we find

Older versions of IE (windows or mac) need an XML plugin to view the DoS
standings.

I couldn't view them for several weeks a while back, but I noticed that the DoS was an .xml page, while the DoF and DoM standings were .html (and I could view them just fine)

The newest versions of IE and Nestcape have it built in, so you'll just need to upgrade.
