I have been trying to use it for a couple of days (http://www.rae.es/) and I get an error ("Esta página web no está disponible") every time i look up a word. Is anyone experiencing this?

Regards,
Daniel.

Thanks for the effort. For some reason I get the same error message (even with the link you provided) with Chrome and Internet Explorer.

I even erased cookies and temps file with no luck.

So I guess I won't be able to translate anymore.)

Tested it just now Feb 3, 2015

Hi,
I tested the dictionary just now and it worked fine. I accessed it from Brazil with Mozilla.
Maybe there is some problem with the Spanish provider.
Whatever it is I hope it gets fixed soon!

Use several browsers Feb 3, 2015

Chrome failed to open the page a couple of times, but then I switched to Opera. If the latter failed, I used Explorer.

The fact is that they have been having problems with their website, but nothing that “browser hopping” cold not solve.
