Subject: relative path name problems with Netscape EMBEDs

I am having trouble with Netscape using a relative path name for an RPM
file in an EMBED statement.
If I use an absolute path name like:

<EMBED NAME="demo" SRC="file:///c|/mysubdir/test.rpm" HIDDEN="true">

I have no problem with Netscape or Internet Explorer. But if I use a
relative path such as

<EMBED NAME="demo" SRC="test.rpm" HIDDEN="true"> it works with Internet
Explorer, but Netscape
gives me this error:

            Netscape is unable to find the file or directory named

            /C|/mysubdir/c:windows/TEMP/G2Play.htm

Does anybody know how to use a relative path here? Please don't just assume you
know how to do it. I need an example that works  which YOU HAVE ACTUALLY TRIED
;-). I've tried every combination of syntax  I can think of. Some attempts give
errors like the above, some give javascript errors like "document.demo has no
properties."

Clearly Netscape is seriously confused here. But I am hoping there is a way
around the problem. Please help!
