Hi All,
I'm really hoping I can get this resolved. I am having problems getting the briefing to work for my first mission. I wrote up the html and put it in the correct folder but after exporting to single missions, even restarting the game after that and launching the mission, it goes right into the mission...Not even a hint of the briefing. Once in the mission, I go to the map and none of the briefing is there either. Just "_cur_sp" at the top of the notebook. The single missions is showing the mission as "shepard's Run.NOE.pbo, I guess thats the right thing to see. I also have a description.ext turning on the GPS but that is working which makes it all the more frustrating that the briefing won't work. I have also included the contents of the briefing file in hopes that someone might be able to tell where I am going wrong with this. The briefing page comes up fine with no errors in a browser so i don't know if it is in my coding or what. Someone please help!?
Here is the contents of the briefing.html:

<b>Friday 10 May 2006, 0600L</b>
<br><br>
<p>Weather: Partly cloudy</p>
Situation: One hour ago at approximately 0500, one of our scout RAH-66 Commanche helicopters went down somewhere in the vicinity of grid <a href="marker:marker3">HC36</a>. <p>It is currently unknown if it was shot down or suffered mechanical failure. We do know that at least the pilot survived due to some fragmentary radio messages we have received from him. Though the radio messages were barely readable and heavily garbled, we believe that he is planning on hiding in an abandoned farm located in grid <a href="marker:marker2">GJ38. </a></p>
<p>Intelligence indicates that the enemy forces have not yet located the crash site but are searching for it. We cannot allow the helicopter, the classified electronics gear and data inside it, or the pilot to fall into enemy hands.</p>

You and your team are going to go in there, blow the chopper with a satchel charge and get that pilot out of there.</p>
<p>Insertion: You will be inserted via an MH-6 Littlebird helicopter near an abandoned estate located at grid <a href="marker:marker1">HE35.</a></p>
Objectives: First you will need to locate, secure and destroy the downed helicopter some where near grid <a href="marker:marker3">HC36. </a> Your second objective is to locate and link up with the downed pilot and get him to the extraction zone to bring him home. Again, we believe he will be somewhere in the abandoned farm located at grid <a href="marker:marker2">GJ38. </a> You will then proceed to the extraction zone.
Extraction: You will extract via UH-60 Blackhawk that will sortie upon reciept of radio code "Alpha". Extraction will occur at grid <a href="marker:marker4">GH40, </a>near the church. The UH-60 will egress via a different route than the ingress to bring your team and the pilot home.
