 Hi Sam,

The point Bernie was trying to make is that these links need to be
"non-static" (is that the correct term?)

Your "fix" is good.
However, it will only work if the user has chosen to do a "default install"
to c:\arachne

Here are the correct links which will work for all installations.

---clipped from....
---current_user_arachne_install_drive:\current_user_arachne_main_directory
\examples\testdgi.htm---

If you want to create your own <A HREF="..\dgi.txt">DGI scripts</A>
(---------------------------------------^^^------------------------)

<A HREF="..\mime.cfg">MIME.CFG</A>. If you want to distribute your DGI script,
(--------^^^---------)

distribute Arachne DGI components using <A HREF="..\apm.txt">Arachne Package
(------------------------------------------------^^^-------)

This will now work with all installations.
(all drives, all main directory names)
