Note here that, as you asked, I am talking about a Safari/Jaguar-generated
.webloc file, not the Safari/Tiger-generated one I did my testing with.

If I copy this file over the network to my Tiger powerbook, it has 0 data
bytes and 0 resource bytes and will not open Safari.  I cannot explain this
since I am using drag-and-drop from Finder windows which should, I thought,
preserve resource forks.

So, I had to install HexEdit and Resorcerer on the Jaguar box.  That's why
it took me so long to reply.

Here is what is in the .webloc files:

Safari/Jaguar-generated .webloc file:
  Data fork: 
    0 bytes
  Resource fork contains shows 3 resources:
    'drag', type 128, contains the names of the other two resources
    'TEXT', type 256, contains the URL I am looking for
    'url ', type 256, also contains the URL I am looking for.

Safari/Tiger-generated .webloc file:
  Data fork: 
    0 bytes
  Resource fork contains shows 4 resources:
    'drag', type 128, contains the names of the other three resources
    'TEXT', type 256, contains the URL I am looking for
    'url ', type 256, also contains the URL I am looking for.
    'urln', type 256, contains 5 bytes:  41 70 70 6C 65

I hope this raises more answers than questions. Thanks!

Jerry
