Q1440 Is there anyway to dynamically set the BASE HREF to something if the page is loaded locally and somewhere else is loaded from online?

No. Even trying the following does not work, as Netscape Navigator adds another BASE tag before our own:

<html>
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if (location.protocol == 'file:')
  document.write('<BASE HREF="file:///c:/mymaindir/subir">');
else
  document.write('<BASE HREF="http://something.com">');
//--></script>
<body>
....
</body>
</html>
