Hi Klaus, Can you try http://www.une.edu.au/itd and then try one of the links on the page you get i.e. "About ITD" and see if that works for you. I've found that if I use that link instead of http://www.une.edu.au/itd/index.html, it doesn't work, but if I use the full link with the index.html on the end, relative links work OK. I'm guessing the problem is that Emacs/W3 is interpreting a link that ends without the explicit .html page (e.g. index.html) incorrectly - its stripping the last element off the link and adding the relative link to that, which is incorrect. regards, Tim -- Tim Cross The e-mail address on this message is FALSE (obviously!).
