===================================
Using:  Desktops.OpenDoc ^   on
http://www.debian.org
 produced just the 2 top lines and 'under-line token'
and them it trapped:-
TRAP -14  NIL reference ( 00000014H ) (PC Native 11.10.2001)
HTMLImages.ImgIcon  PC = 5551
	key = 13
	keyAttr = "IMGKey"
HTMLImages.IMG  PC = 7583
	C =  00000018H
	E =  0033B920H
	P =  001A40A0H
	S =  000000A8H
	alt = ""
	attr = ""
	battr =  00000000H
...
--------------
By contrast, 
 http://carnot.pathology.ubc.ca/
loaded right up to:
"...
Comments and suggestions are welcome, 
Peter E."
Which I guess is the whole text ?!
And then produced the 
TRAP -14  NIL reference ( 00000014H ) (PC Native 11.10.2001)
HTMLImages.ImgIcon  PC = 5551
	key = 53
	keyAttr = "IMGKey"
HTMLImages.IMG  PC = 7583
	C =  00000018H
	E =  0044EB80H
	P =  0014C7E0H
	S =  000000A8H
	alt = "Valid HTML 4.01!"
	attr = ""
	battr =  00000000H
	border = 0
	doc =  00000000H
...

Have you got an 'image' at the end of you web-page ?

I'm guessing that the "00000000H" are the 'NIL references'.

So this looks unrelated to your trap.

Since I'm unaware of any changes that I made to my system, and now
all Desktops.OpenDoc http://... trap, I speculated that a universal
change to ALL http://.. had occured.  Like I'm the only person in the
world still using 486 machines !

BTW, when passing the scrap-heap yesterday, a 586-box jumped at me.
Perhaps with this, *.ps viewing will be tolerable ?
As one who grew up with 8 bit CPUs, I still find it unacceptable to
see CPU's with 'air-conditioners strapped to their back !'.
