I have created a Web Browser within my Project.
On the opening page there are three Hyperlinks to other pages.
I have all the web address's stored in the distribution folder.
When I test the page... The Web Browser opens on the first page.. but when I press the Hyperlink, I get the connect to internet box pop in... and the only way I can view the hyperlinked pages is by going to Internet Explorer and clicking the "Work Offline" option.
Is there a way of viewing these hyperlinked pages without having to click the "Work Offline" option.

Yes you most certainly can but it sounds like you're using http links by accident, I'd have to see your project to know what exactly is wrong though.

Thanks for the reply

I am using htm links... what is the other way to open each hyperlink??

My opening page is %SrcDir%\WebSite Chisholm\ISU.htm

With the hyperlinks being..

C:\My Documents\AutoPlay Media Studio Projects\1\Distribution\WebSite Chisholm\ISU consultancy.htm

C:\My Documents\AutoPlay Media Studio Projects\1\Distribution\WebSite Chisholm\ISU training.htm

The hyperlink works fine, as long as I use the "work offline" option.
So, how do I point to that link without using ".htm"

Thanks

Your system is misconfigured then, if you try it on another computer it will work fine. Not sure how to fix it since it's hard to say what's wrong.

It might work better if you used relative links instead.

Instead of linking to:

C:\My Documents\AutoPlay Media Studio Projects\1\Distribution\WebSite Chisholm\ISU consultancy.htm

...just link to this:

ISU consultancy.htm

...and make sure the .htm files are in the same folder as ISU.htm.
