I know this is a Linux group but I also know that there is a bunch of smart, experienced people out there so . . .
Made a small web site that is not on my server - just a bunch of html files and links. Simple enough - point the file manager (on Linux and on XP) at the index.html file, tell it to open and it works just fine - all the browsers worked fine, navigate around just fine. That is until I try it with Internet Exploder 8 on XP. IE will not follow SOME of the links but will follow others. In the document, the links look like ../../index.html when I hover the mouse over the link, it looks like: file:///D:/STAGES/DVD/index.html IE cannot figure that out (however Firefox can so I know the code is good). My guess is that there is a setting somewhere in IE that is "protecting me from internet evil" - and also protecting me from doing what I want to do. I know this is possible because I have seen web sites that run stand-alone from DVDs (which is what I ultimately want to do). Anybody got any help here? I've been fighting this all day and it is driving me straight to the liquor cabinet . . . -- frank hunt (L0F) R0B-ZAR1 befuddled linux admin erstwhile photographer hillsboro oregon _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
