I think the Right Thing would be to have a genpage macro (a Perl subroutine) that would generate an appropriate <IMG> tag. Something like relImg( 'xemacs.gif' , 'alt="XEmacs"' ) to generate <IMG SRC="../../Images/xemacs.gif" alt="XEmacs"> This makes it explicit that Magic is happening, and keeps the Perl stuff out of the HTML stuff, which I think is the way to go for sake of clarity. It's trivial to do an ugly version of this (the example above is ugly); a good version would need to integrate some Perl modules so as to be able to automatically insert the proper 'height' and 'width' tags. john. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John S Jacobs Anderson \ <URL:http://www.xemacs.org> You'll have to pry my Emacs from my cold \ jacobs(a)xemacs.org dead oversized control-pressing left pinky finger. -- Randal L.
