Can you help with a web-site?
 

I know someone here has talked about a web-site that you put in an addy in Paris and it will show you the neighbourhood. I can't find it...Any help would be good.

I am looking to find out info on '63 Avenue de la Bourdonnais,
75007 Paris'

Thanks

pagesjaunes.fr

A fun site

where do I type in the addy on the site...Thanks a million.

under "ou?" Localitie is Paris 7, type the address in the addresse slot, then
put IDF in the departement area.
Click Rechercher. Click on Photo under what comes next. Another cool feature is ability to look across the street, etc, by clicking on arrows.

sorry if that's unclear. "IDF" for Ile de France goes in Localite area.

Don't screw around with the main page. Go directly to http://photos.pagesjaunes.fr and type the street number and name in the blank.

Thanks, Robespierre.

The photos are not working for me...It says cannot find server...but thanks.

Did you try hitting the link in my post (3 above)?

Robespierre...I did but it says cannot find server. I hope I can find a way to access it.

Photobear, I just tried that link and it worked fine for me so maybe a glitch on your end. Keep trying.

I will try on my husband's computer to see if he can but I just tried again and it's a no go. :(

Who is your ISP? It sounds like their DNS isn't working as intended.

It's Rogers here in Canada which is the largest ISP i Canada...

Hmmm. Maybe they're anglophones with an attitude about French web sites? Can you see http://www.pagesjaunes.fr?

I'm on earthlink and am having the same problem. I can see http://www.pagesjaunes.fr?

That's really weird. Try purging your cache. If your browser cached an obsolete IP address, you might get the "no server" symptom.

By the way - what browsers have you tried?

Thanks, I purged my cache and still no luck. I'm using IE. What's really weird is that I've used that site b4.

Mine works OK. I note that the site requires "Flash" player. Have you downloaded this onto your computer? If so try downloading Updates for the program. You can see the link on the bottom left hand side of the - http://photos.pagesjaunes.fr - page.

Hi

You can also type in an address in Google maps and get this shown on the map: http://www.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl&q=

Here is a link to my Paris trip report with links, pictures and a Google map that shows where the attractions are located: http://gardkarlsen.com/Paris_France.htm

Thanks for all the suggestions.

We have tried Firefox and internet explorer on 2 seperate computers, we have flash, we have also purged the cache.

I can see the pagesjaune main page but I can get anything when I click on photos or the link that Robespierre and another Fodors reader sent me by email...
We sent Rogers an email to see if they can help.

Oh well, I can be patient too.

Thanks everyone. :)

Where it says: Enter:

Ville: Paris

No. 63

Rue: Avenue de la Bourdonnais

If clicking the hyperlink doesn't work, type it in the address box manually. If that doesn't work, see if the computer is plugged in.

Really, plugged in? I never thought of that...Sure.

I have tried typing in the addy manually, I have tried the links, I have tried on my office computer, 2 home computers and 2 friends have also tried for me...I can't get the photo site to load. I am still waiting for my ISP tech people to get back to me.

thanks for all the suggestions. I can't wait to see the pics. A lot of people have emailed me some info, I thnak you all.
