Forum: web Subject: Re: When I click on archived URL, it takes me to today's current URL. Why?

Yes.

From this point:
http://web.archive.org/web/20040201113226/http://everett.k12.wa.us/
in February 2004, anything prior can be accessed as normal from the Wayback Machine.

After that date, http://www.everett.k12.wa.us redirects you to http://www.everett.k12.wa.us/everett

You can accesss later versions (after Feb 04) by pointing the wayback machine to http://www.everett.k12.wa.us/everett

this is a direct link to the wayback page for that:

http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.everett.k12.wa.us/everett

hope this helps you in time to save you some hair-pulling.

It doesn't look to me like this is an effort to avoid the page being archived, it's just a webmaster whimsy or something of that sort.
