What, exactly, would that be relative to? If your original document is not being accessed as a "file:" URI, then you don't have a base path under that scheme from which to reference relative "file:" URIs. The path that happens to be within the "http:" URI can't be presumed to have any relevance to the local system's file structure as accessible by "file:" URIs. -- == Dan == Dan's Mail Format Site: http://mailformat.dan.info/ Dan's Web Tips: http://webtips.dan.info/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dan.info/
