Browsing a local disk or CD-ROM
In browsers that support browsing files on a local disk this link will show the contents inside the PageSpinner Examples folder.
The HTML Code for the link looks like this:
<![CDATA[<A HREF="../">link</A>]]>
Since this file is located in a folder inside the Examples folder the file path is set to "../" that tells the browser to display the contents in the folder above. See the PageSpinner AppleGuide for more information about relative file paths.
This technique can be useful to view contents located on a multi-platform CD-ROM. It might also be useful to browse contents located on a local disk on platforms that lack the ability to use the MacOS Finder.
Note that a browser such as Netscape 3.0, doesn't seem to be able locate a file if the path to the folder contains a character witch an ASCII code > 127.
