    Hello Tim!

    My folder tree seems to have become a bit of a mess. To see what I mean, have a look here: https:\\stargate.org.uk\winpoint\temp\folder_tree.png

    Interesting that OpenXP's "TAB" to find and highlight the https
    link does not work if the last item in the string is a ".png"

    Ahbut, it *does* work for .png's but I cannot believe that I actually
    wrote the URL the way I did. Must have had a brain-fart, my bad, sorry :(

    So.. did you actually type out that link manually? I didn't realize that perhaps dyslexia included the special characters. :D

    When I enter a link that uses backslashes, the browser automatically flips them to forward slashes. So, maybe people are not realizing the difference.

    Which reminds me, maybe OpenXP can be made adaptable the same way! ;)

    So does mine and that's probably why I hadn't noticed my mistake.

    Who knows :-)

    You know who to ask and where to ask :-)))
