Hi Mirek,

Thanks for your reply. The "bad" content is not so bad, it seems to be another similar (outdated ?) page about the same book. The problem is that it's not organized the same way, so I don't retrieve the data I need, or I should parse it a different way.

I will try tracing the requests and see what can be done.

What is surprising is that I get (sometimes) this bad content only when I get directly the URL. The first time I look for a book, I make a search on the site, obtain a list of books, select the right one and follow the link. This link is the URL that I store and use next times, but curiously, I get always the right page when I first search the book rather than using the stored URL!

I just wanted to have other's opinion about this : anyway, I can workaround the problem either parsing the "bad" content when I get it, or doing the search of the book first rather than use the direct url. I'll let know if I find the reason of this bad content.

Thanks for your advices.
