I hardly ever use them any more. Taking the opportunity over the
Xmas break to tidy up a few things I did ages ago without redoing
them completely. I re read the section on map in 4.01 in the last
few mins and I have no real puzzle now.
[I wrote a few stories once and did the pages in SuperPaint (like
Illustrator but easier) intended for printing but easiest to
adapt for web by using the very economical gif-pages (most are 8
to 12k), on only one or two did I need to get links going from
within the gifs). I was thinking, maybe I would not do it this
way these days but I am not sure... it would be an awful bother
to do the sort of thing I was doing, essentially a picture story
with the text placed within the pics in various pictorially
appropriate places. But if it was just for online and I was
starting from scratch, I would likely do it differently and keep
the text html and rethink all...]
I better read your link...
