I download Webzip and saved the Wired magazine.
I copied the directory it created to the CF and opened it in the device. Then i tried opening links but couldn't get it to work

I then decided to create a simple "website":
- 1.htm
- 2.htm
- level/3.htm

Copied it to CF and tried it. It works but you have to do some "point and click" to use text links since you have to "click" on the text :P
I'll have to ask mr. Henzen if they are planning on creating auto hotspots for text links...

So if the simple website works why not wired? I was looking at it in the PC browser and noticed it creates fixed links:
c:\website\1.html -> c:\website\2.html -> c:\website\level\1.html

Instead of relative links (1.htm -> 2.htm -> level/3.htm)

Does anyone know any setting in webzip to do relative linking from the root were the site is saved? or other program that does it?
