There's a page that has links to all the Vlib sections, namely Overview.html; a walker can start there and recursively measure till it recognises pages that are not Vlib - e.g. no Vlib icon (?). _____________________________________________________________________ http://www.charm.net/~web/Vlib.html The WWW Virtual Library section on WWW Development ranges from how to develop WWW pages, to setting up servers, to the evolution of the WWW. _____________________________________________________________________ http://guinan.gsfc.nasa.gov/Alan/Richmond.html WWW Systems EngineerReceived on Sunday, 2 October 1994 19:15:12 UTC
