    Just one question: If the page does not load at all, is broken or inoperable for some reason, what do I do? Just not select anything and say the page is broken? A lot of PDF ones or links to some kind of document (type 2) seem to not work at all.

    Reading the directions, it looks like you should leave a comment below. I'm not sure if the HIT will submit without clicking anything.

    I am new at this myself and am reading the directions over and over to insure I understand what I'm to do. Seems easy enough.

    Thank you x8 for having a forum on this.

    I have been copying and pasting dates. Is this okay or do you want them entered in a specific way?

    yeah i have had a couple where the link shows up as an error because this https://s3.amazonaws.com/mturk_bulk/hits/78844006/ is in front of what i am assuming is the actual link, so i have been basing my answer off the link after fixing it and noting it in the comments :)

    I haven't been trying to fix the links. Just copying and pasting the message I get. Hope that's the right thing to do.

    I would think that copying and pasting is fine since there is less chance of an error.

    Had one that the link wouldn't load at all. I just returned it. Is that what we should do?

    I'm just running 2 hits at once, that way when a big pdf is loading I can work on another hit at the same time ;) Just a tip.

    I am getting a lot of error pages that say "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."

    I am working in Chrome. Anyone else?

    Yes, just copy it on the bottom line, mark #3 and write n/a.
