Online/offline makes no difference. Here's an example from the webPlug CD:
The link is HREF="../gallery/html/pictures/index.html", as this links from
the root to a different directory than the one I'm in. When clicking on this
link, V says that it can't open 'CD0:/gallery/html/pictures/indes.html'.
The problem is that V is adding a slash after the colon. If I delete the
slash in the URL box (so it's just "CD0:gallery...") it goes there fine.
Is this a problem with the author's HTML, or a problem with how V interprets
"../" in local files? The demos of AWeb and IBrowse both have no problems
with this link.
