Thanks. I've now got Webjames successfully serving local pages, and obeying those "absolute" links -- /logo.gif and /paper.jpg (the background pattern) which appear on every page of the site. I have also discovered that simply putting favicon.ico in the root directory causes that icon to appear beside the URL automagically: absolutely no extra code at all is required in the HTML. One problem still has me scratching my head: - Netsurf displays the pages served up via Webjames perfectly, except that it is NOT obeying the stylesheet (which is /2018.css ) even though the Webjames log records a GET success for the CSS file just as it did for the logo and paper and favicon. - Yet when Netsurf fetches the identical page from my ISP's server, it DOES obey the CSS. Same problem for pages farther out the directory tree. All pages now specify /2018.css in handy "absolute" shortform. -- Jim Nagel www.archivemag.co.uk || See you at the show? www.riscos-swshow.co.uk Feb 24
