Kristin/Eric,<br><br>I've tried linking to files in the way you describe and can't get it to work. Had slightly more success in IE than Firefox, but couldn't get the file to open, so ultimately a failure. Guess instiki doesn't support it at this stage.
<br><br>Also, can anyone advise why the clean up and delete orphan pages doesn't seem to work for me - still have the orphan pages : (<br><br>Cheers,<br>Richard.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 2/22/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">
