It was a good idea, I got so excited I dropped everything else and tested
it.
I made entries like this:
u 28.00 38.55 &&pages&&file:///volume/sys/intro/cindy2.htm
Then Netscape would complain that it can't find the server
volume:sys:intro:cindy2.htm
So the / got converted to a : and it thinks it's a server.
I was surprised to see that so I loaded cindy2.htm on Netscape, just to
look at the path, and the path is file:///volume/sys/intro/cindy2.htm
I think we are almost there, but we may be missing something somewhere....
Thank you very much for the suggestion. If you, or anyone else, can think
of what else to try or to change, please let me know.

This may not help but I'll throw it in anyway. I have had similar problems
getting relative local links to work on the Mac - the Mac player does not
seem to like them. Absolute links sometimes work - depending upon the
browser. Try using:
u 28.00 38.55 &&pages&&file:///CDVolumeName/PathOnCD/cindy2.htm
where CDVolumeName is the name of the CDROM as it appears on the Mac
desktop. The reason this may not help, even if it does work on the Mac, is
that it won't work on Windows. Do you have room on the CDROM for separate
Windows and Mac rm files? If so, you can use javascript in the HTML pages
that link to the rm file to detect the OS and then point the link to the
appropriate rm file. Alternatively, use SMIL instead of events to
synchronise the video and slides.
