But then you can't control the look of the nav panel (hey <NAV>),
e.g., I want to use by bookmark icon for navigation:
<NAV>
<A HREF="/bookmark/server_bookmark/demo.html:Index_Page/demo.html:Index_Page/page2.html:Page_2">
<IMG SRC="/server/bookmark/bookmark.xbm" ISMAP></A>
</NAV>
Can you explain why you want the links to be "outside the document"?
I don't understand how this makes it better (I assume it has something
to do with autonavigation without using a server or something).
I'm not against supporting that but we need to figure out how to make
it work while still allowing complete customization of the NAV panel
(perhaps via a REL in the link <A REL="nav" HREF="http:...">???).
I have no idea where this is going. Terry, since you know what you
want can you see how this might be accomplished?
