Couldn't get this to work, I'm using khtml and the html seems to need the < 
bracket. (Admittedly it was very late at night and with not alot of time.)

like     <a href=       >prostatism</a>

Also it errors out on the Path as string  saying 'bad event handler, too many 
arguments).

Having said that I"ve kinda got something on the way - I really want to embed 
a key from one of the fields in  my progress notes table (pk_problem) which 
I'll then use to link to all episodes for that particular problem, so I've 
done a string replace of part of the path with str$(pk_problem), which I can 
then extract when the webbrowsernotes_link() is activated.

I'll keep fiddling, and report back, but any other comments welcome.
