Paul.

I can't resolve the URL (or domain) you supplied, so I can't see what's
going on:
------------------------------
C:\>ping michellechuff.com
Ping request could not find host michellechuff.com. Please check the name
and try again.
------------------------------

Did you also fix the initial script tag like MJJAIXEN suggested?
