Web page address

Why is it that some pages come up with something like the following just on top of an otherwise blank page

<html><body><embed type="application/pdf" src="http://www.edo.org.au/edotas/pdf/ryan.pdf" name="plugin" width="100%" height="100%">

when I am doing a Google search?

Thanks Zante.

That is a line of HTML code (the language web pages are written in) which presumably your browser has been unable to resolve. This might be because the target of the code is invalid, the code itself is wrong or because it cannot open that type of file directly. If you type the URL "http://www.edo.org.au/edotas/pdf/ryan.pdf" from your example in, you can download the PDF file.

Thanks Mike, sorry so long getting back to you but I forgot I asked the question until it happened again just now! Zante.
