ext: BROKEN, now direct linking broken too

[Dick Hollenbeck <di...@softplc.com>]

The project consists of some files generated with forrest, and some html 
files that are generated with other tools.  The "site" is the composite 
of the two sets of html files and it is to be distributed on CD, not on 
a website, so using "http:" in the URL is not feasible.   I need to be 
able to link from the forrest generated pages to the non-forrest 
generated pages.  I cannot believe this would be so elusive.


Even using *direct* linking with a relative URL such as:

<a href="c_toolkit/modules.html">Modules</a>


Forrest is doing two things I don't want:




a) transforming the URL "c_toolkit/modules.html" to  "path to xml 
source/c_toolkit/modules.html"


This is wrong, and I do not want it.


b) verifying the existence of the file pointed to by the transformated 
URL: "path to developement source/c_toolkit/modules.html"


This is wrong, and I do not want it.


Help please.
