Hi all
I'm attempting to submit an ATCA proposal but OPAL is driving me nuts! On the browsers which will actually save an observation table without crashing, this is saved as an HTML file, rather than OXML, which can't be uploaded to preview/submit.
I've tried changing the extension, but not joy. It is incredibly frustrating all all the info has to be re-entered and all of the files uploaded each attempt. Am I the only one experiencing this bug? Help please!

Re: Observation table in OPAL
Hi Steve,
With Chrome 96.0.4664.45 on Ubuntu I was able to create and successfully save an OXML observations table just before replying, from https://opal.atnf.csiro.au.
Could you please elaborate on your process and configuration?

Re: Observation table in OPAL
Hi Steve,
Sorry this is not working for you. I can't replicate this on my end. I think to progress I may need to see your observations table file, in case there is a problem with the combination of what you've got in there and the OPAL system.
Could you please send me (via email, Jamie.Stevens at csiro.au) the obs table and cover sheet XML files, and I will see what happens when I try to preview them.

Re: Observation table in OPAL
Thanks Jamie. Phil did a new obs file and I removed and re-added the collaborator from the cover sheet. Works fine now, but just don't know what's going on with my obs files (for some reason they get saved as html).
