Dr Chang World Stamps Album

I use Dr. Chang's world stamp album often and at the start of the weekend it went down and still not back. Anyone have any idea what happened with it?

*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I just had a look. The site is up. If you cannot open it, you might want to look at your browser.

I did see it was back now, I was getting worried as I use it so often a number of times a week.

It's a bit strange- I can get to the website but there are no links to click on.

Shermae,

Check your browser. For me Chrome no links etc., with Edge all links etc.

For me the links worked as well.

With apologies in advance for my having no clue here, what is this 'Dr. Chang's World Stamp Album?' Link?

https://www.worldstampalbum.com/

Update from earlier. Both Chrome and Edge browsers are now working correctly. As you can see from the link it is using Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure so it is supporting secure communications.

Not a secure site. Google the site then open. Click for "All Countries" Enjoy!
I use Chrome.

I just looked and I'm getting a 404 error on the site. Not sure what's going on.

Still no problems with either Chrome or Edge.
Probably, it is best to use a search engine to get to the site. Above link gives a warning I otherwise do not get.

Yes... I have found that it is indeed NOT a secure website (http not https). Therefore the proper link is:

http://www.worldstampalbum.com/main.aspx

I have tested quite a bit and there is more going on than just a bad certificate (https). I also tested the site using various IP addresses across the world, and it is not a case of geo-blocking. I have tested the site across multiple browsers, and it is not browser related.
Additionally, this site has a history of periodical being down over the years (previously reported in this forum that anytime the author makes a change the site goes down for a while).
I recommend just giving it a few days and I assume that it will be back up like it has in the past.

Barhata:
Curious; I've never seen that /main.aspx added to address before. Does it work with any unsecured site.
Please explain how it works and the dangers of using it.

Timm... the ". aspx" extension is a webpage generated using Microsoft ASP.NET framework running on web servers. ASPX stands for Active Server Pages Extended and these pages are displayed in web browser at user end when the URL is accessed. In this instance, it is telling your browser to open the main page at that URL.
