Hi

The links to the faqs in different languages on
http://elks.sourceforge.net/faq/
are missing the 'faq/' path prefix (at least for german and
english).  Don't know, if you can correct this, but guess
you know, who can.

I've just had a look, and I can't find this problem anywhere on the
website. Can somebody please check this for me, and report precicely
where the problem lies?

Best wishes from Riley Williams, ELKS website maintainer.

on the page:
http://elks.sourceforge.net/faq/

http://elks.sourceforge.net/FAQ-English.html  <--- links as they exist now

http://elks.sourceforge.net/faq/FAQ-English.html <--- links as they should be

As they exist now, they point to nothing. This applies to ALL the FAQ links 
on http://elks.sourceforge.net/faq/

OK, I've found and dealt with them. Somebody had inserted an incorrect
<Base HRef=""> line in the page header - the final / in the URL quoted
MUST be present - and that's what was causing this. I've now fixed it
throughout the ELKS website.

Please note that you may need to force a page refresh to get the
corrected pages. That's a known problem with some browsers when working
through a web proxy, and beyond my control.

Best wishes from Riley.
