I've built an intranet site which is a couple of html pages linking to lots
of .doc, .xls, .pdf and image files. I am now required to dump the whole
thing onto CD-ROM to be sent all over the country. My test disk works great
with links in the .doc files to other .doc files and such, so long as I use
IE6 on a PC which opens everything within the browser. NN4x on a PC instead
opens the native programs for each document and breaks the link by inserting
a /temp/into the link. The iMAC I tried adds a tilde to the long file names
and breaks the links.

It seems to me that going to 8 character names might cure the Mac, but the
NN 4x issue has got me. The people receiving this disk will have many
different systems so I have to be broadly compatible. Help!
