This is done (I think) by one of the system frameworks. E.g., this happens in Safari. For such apps, in the File dialog, if the first character you type is "/", you get a drop-down dialog to enter a directory name ("/.../.../..."); the same thing happens if you type CMD-G. In this dialog, you can type a "relative" path as well ("./...") Other browsers might not use the same frameworks, and build their own... Justin -- Justin C.
