Things are on the verge of changing, so I wouldn't invest too much time in figuring out the system currently in place. In the current version, there is no general image handling currently, although you can include encapsulated postscript that comes out okay in LaTeX. Cross references are fairly simple. Somewhere you have: <label id="foo"> and somewhere else you have <ref id="foo" name="see foo for more information"> The only way to link to a separate document is through a URL: <url url="foo.html" name="See foo for more information"> Alternatively, use the <htmlurl> tag which has the same attributes but only prints name in non-html documents. This is obviously pretty clunky since URLs are a pretty clunky way to make hypertext. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fallout.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ================
