Looks like the HTML on this board has swallowed the less-than signs.

Try:

ftp ftp.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk <<-ENDFTP
ascii
get index.html
bye
ENDFTP

(You can post &lt; in place of the less-than symbol, but the Preview screen replaces it with so you you either have to paste it in again after previewing, or else use &amp;lt; in the original post, if I've got that right...)
