this message took over half an hour to appear, the blue progress bar at the bottom ended up stopping at 3/4 of the way across.
The page is still trying to open, I clicked on the little box at the bottom and another message appeared
Line: 32

Error... syntax error
Now the blue bar has not moved for 20 minutes, but, on the bottom left it now say " done"

Error.. Unterminated string constant

From clicking on the link for the cam to receiving the last error message took over half an hour.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thank you for any advice, and sorry if I posted this question on the wrong forum

First, this doesn't sound like either an html problem or a problem with your browser. If it was working for you and then stopped, but you didn't make any changes -- then something changed on the server that you are trying to access. The error message suggest a scripting problem, although you can't be sure it is the exact cause of your issue.
Still, the fix is probably on the server, so I'd get a message to the IT person at your husband's workplace.
var FRM; var platform='M2IP'; var features=48; var product='DV-IP'; var sms_enable=0; var sys_features = 2547; var vmd_scripted = 0; function setLang(obj) { with (document.forms[0]) { var myLang=LANGUAGES[elements["lang"].options[elements["lang"].selectedIndex].value][1] ; setCookie('mylang',""+myLang+"",'/'); } docum
Does this mean anything to you guys?
Many Thanks

Here is some dumbo-level trouble-shooting for you:
<script language='javascript' type='text/javascript'>)
[To try to help with Q2, try "https://www.google.com/adsense/" (a Google Adsense page) : after page-load, the "Email" logon box should become highlighted; that is achieved via javascript; if it *does* become highlighted (with the cursor inside the text-box), then your browser is fine.]
OH well another kick up the botty for IT
Thanks again for you help

That looks like Java...
Looks like JavaScript to me -- Java is a very different technology.

Does this shed any more light on my problem?

If you upload a page that links to a Flash file, the page will do exactly as you describe - since the Flash file is not there, it can't generate any error messages, and the browser is "waiting" to get a response. So it will hang, pretty much as you describe, indefinately or until the browser times out and gives up. This is one of the bad things about Flash, it requires your duckies are all quacking on queue and in key. :-)
I am guessing your video feed is acting very much in the same way - the page is linking to a resource that is not connecting or producing output. Since it was working before and you haven't changed anything, like tedster hinted, I suggest the video feed or service itself is what's malfunctioning, not your page. The Javascript errors may be attempting to interact with the object containing the feed, so if the feed is not there, the Javascript may not have methods for managing a malfunction in the feed (poor programming :-) ) hence it will just generate cryptic errors.
All of this, of course, is hypothesis without seeing the actual code.
Have you had someone try to access this page in a different browser?
OK - the problem is on *your* machine. It is now either just the browser, or the computer (small chance of it being the line, but not very likely).
Now it begins to look like a computer issue.
Which pretty much confirms the issue as being on the computer.
To double-check, drag another computer onto the same line, and try to connect with that (do not connect it with the existing computer, just in case there is a virus or some such at play). If the other system (laptop, whatever) connects OK, you have confirmed it.
The alternative is to attempt to fix the (almost-certain) software problem within the computer system. That is almost impossible at a distance, and damned difficult when close up and personal to the machine. The advice is always the same, and is the best that can be offered - restart with a clean system, and be very careful indeed as to what you install in the future.
You did all the correct things with this situation. The info that we were missing was number-1 above.
Good luck.
Ask the IT guys if they can view the camera from the server. If they can, there are a couple of issues that could be causing this. The iprouting could be messed up on the server. Is this an actual server OS, or is it a normal pc? Also you may want to perform a netsh reset and flushdns on your own computer, especially if your using windows xp.
Let me know. Good Luck!
