Udo already pointed out, you can read an article as a single file, specifying "article.html" explicitly. For example: - splitted html version: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/pam/index.html - single html version: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/pam/article.html I do not know why splitted html version is by default, but it is reasonable for many readers because some articles are short and some are long, and the readers can choose single or splitted version by preference. Hmmm... How about adding an anchor to the single html version into the title page of the splitted version (and vise versa)? -- | Hiroki SATO / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
